2013 Warwick Duo mods
Here's the first 2........
Here's the neat power port, fits where the ashtray was..

Neatly tidies up the myriad of cables we all seem to need these days. One important point is that a "normal" 12v lighter plug is incorrect for a cigarette lighter, will work but unreliable. The correct one is from 12v PLANET, and is fitted here.

Also includes 2 x USB 5v sockets, the voltmeter gives both the 12v voltage and the USB volts. Each 12v outlet is also separately swichable.
Next one is a seat mod. The front seats each have an armrest whichever position they are in makes it difficult to get from the driver position to the habitation. My wife never uses the pax one anyway, so it is removed and fitted to the RHS of the driver seat, complex (ish) bracket but I can send a scan of it if anyone wants to copy. it is 5mm aluminium plate.

Make the driving position a lot better, for me at least. You lose the lumbar adjust, but that was adjusted to comfortable prior to fitting this. The slot in the top of the bracket allows for seat recline.
More to follow!!! Hope I'm not boring everyone!

I fitted my satnav, as you can see on the panel above the radio.
Reason being we can both see it, I'm not that bothered re navigation, wifey sorts that out but I use it constantly (mostly abroad) to remind me of the current speed limit which it shows on screen.
I fitted its bracket with "hammer drive" threaded inserts, M3 in this case. Extreme care has to be taken drilling these as there's an airbag under that panel. The secret is not to drill all the way through, make the hole slightly too big so the inserts don't get hammered in and super glue them in place.
I have heaps of spares should anyone else want a couple.
BTW, the 3rd cable seen in the past pic goes to the head up display GPS Speedo, the module sits on a sticky pad then projects up to the screen. It can be in MPH or KPH and the clock can become an altimeter too. Wonderful bit of kit and extremely accurate, much more so than the vehicle speedo!
Thanks for response

I put mine on there once via a Garmin special pad and it shock so much the screen was blurred. So back to the sucker on the windscreen for me.
Like you only really use it for speed limits, I see I have been driving slow all these years till I started to use a Sat Nav.
