Where do I put the MSnS

Hi,

Just about finished the soldering and now turning my mind to where I should put the unit in the car. I know I want it under the scuttle but not sure where would be best. Has anybody got a picture of their installation in a seven type car for me to look at please?

I mounted mine behind the aluminium dash using velcro as this helps to isolate it from the vibration and for ease of removal.

Velcro, doesn't it fall off when you go over speed humps?

No, but my sump gets dented

Or, no the velcro doesn't fall off because I glued it on adequately.

It is all down to how much velcro and where you fit it.
I have 2off, 25mm strips along the edges of the long face of the enclosure.
I found that I had to mask some of it to enable it to be removable easy enough, but without if falling off over speed bumps of course.

My ECU is mounted at the bottom of the passenger footwell with a panel over it to protect it from clumsy feet
