Edge mount   hole in ashtray case

A little off topic... this is the hole I made in the ashtray case to feed the wires through.

(2 wires shown right now as the GPS wire is also feeding through... this was before I added the hidden connector)

Edge mount location

Now its easy to see the Edge without the GPS power adapter sticking out.  And the GPS automatically comes on/off with the truck key!

GPS wiring   fastened

I used a zip-tie to hold the power adapter down so it won't rattle or come loose.

12V outlet wired

I soldered the wires to the connectors and used shrink-tube to keep this all sealed up.  The positive connector is in the very middle and totally covered by the shrink tube.

GPS wiring4   wires taped and tied

Since I didn't cut the original wire, I can't use shrink-tube.  So I wrapped them with yellow electrical tape and then use a zip-tie to hold the wires together and to ensure that the tape stays on.

GPS wiring3   wires soldered

Bulldog doesn't say to solder them, but I feel much better with them soldered.  This ensures a solid connection that won't rattle loose or anything.

GPS wiring1   exposed wires

I used a method given by Bulldog security... cut off the insulation but don't cut through the wire.  Open up the strands so you can stick the other wire through.

GPS Mount location

I like it over here because it doesn't take up windshield space.  The wires are run under the dash.

GPS wire   old setup

A little hard to see the Edge pod in the ex-ashtray.  And its a pain plugging it in every time I get in the truck and then unplugging it when I get out.
(why didn't Ford make one of the 12V outlets switched????)
