vw4tube Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Just finished this bracket. Works great. I wired in a garage door opener and it has two usb ports. I will sell them for $75 shipped in the states. Will come with switches and usb ports but will not have the opener. Can offer more switches in this setup I just did not need them on my bike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Knievel Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 How are the USB ports shielded against water intrusion when powered? Very clever mounting location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vw4tube Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 The USB ports have a cover when not in use. I will take a photo when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RXX Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 OK, I'll take one. How to pay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXera Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 What does the other side of the bracket look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vw4tube Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 The bracket will be powder coated black on both sides. I am still waiting on the usb ports to come in the mail. I do have paypal that would be the best way. Send me your email and I can send an invoice. The bracket is 14ga steal. When you send me your email let me know if you want more switches or if the one I have on my bike is what you are looking for. I will need to have them cut and powder coated to order to offer different switch options. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RXX Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I have a hand grip warmer switch, a radar alert switch, and a cruise control module (which I don't think would fit, but maybe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RXX Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 That would be a pretty sweet spot to put a small voltmeter too. PM me a way to pay for that and one of those trunk brackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vw4tube Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 It has a voltmeter in the middle of the USB ports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXitanium Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The momentary switch is held as long as the key is on and then opens when the key is turned off to preserve the battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The momentary switch is soldered to an opener and is not attached to the battery. You will need to get an opener and do that if you want. The red led lights between the two USB ports shows volts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXitanium Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I'm sorry, I phrased it as a statement. What does the momentary switch do for this assembly please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXitanium Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I really like that garage door button idea. I bought a small pocket fob. I could put it on my keychain, but that's not waterproof. It would also bounce around and wear on the rest of the dash area. ...and my way I have to reach into my pocket and ride one-handed. What model did you get and place in the gator bag?
