I would be interested in them, however we have a 15" dvd system for the kids right where the light is.

Unsure if one would fit up in my roof space.

Btw seen you driving yesterday :D

Could possibly make a digital template if you want evo shouldnt be too hard then to share it around.

Still would need the cardboard template to make correct measurements.

Ok guys at Nick's suggestion I have been looking into making a digital version as well. Therefore I can just email them out. The bit Im having trouble with is getting them to come up to the right scale so you can print them on standard a4...

The GU has three mounting points. This is where I will need some input from those who are interested.
The first mounting point is where the mirror sits and just needs a bit of steel bent into an L shape with some holes drilled into it. very easy. (not changeable)
The other two are as follows.
There is one under the main cabin light, and has a really beefy bracket under the roof liner. This is by far the easiest to locate and very strong. The down side is it makes it very long.
This one is by far the easiest to use though

The other is about 20-30cm closer to the windscreen. It is a crossrib that has two screw holes already in place. It was easy enough in mine as I already had the roof lining cut to fit a rear screen in there. This is the location that The outback consoles use.

I am happy to do either. On the last one I made, similar to dannys I had a cutout base to mount the roof screen into the console.

I don't have a template nor a console for an 80 series. I am happy to make one from scratch If I can get a hold of one though?

I'd be interested in a template as well.

Mirror to main cabin light would be ideal, as no need to cut the roof lining.

OK dokies, easy enough to do. I should have the final template ready by Thursday. Then hopefully I can finalise the digital template.

Sounds good, just don't forget that printers don't print to the edge, my own mistake on my first scale print.
