Ultra Dash Installation
Selecting a Mounting Location
Select a mounting location that does not expose the Ultra Dash to high temperatures. Avoid exposing the
front LCD to direct sunlight. Extreme overheating from the sun can temporarily cause the LCD to turn
entirely black. Although the dash is water resistant (i.e. rain, snow), you should never submerge any part of
the dash under water.
Dash Mounting
Once you have decided on a mounting location use the supplied template to cut out the rear dash inserts and
drill holes for the mounting studs.
Use the supplied machine nuts and locking washers to bolts in the dash. Do not use thread lock or nylock
nuts on the mounting studs.
