I had it installed and working before I posted this. It certainly fits. The OTG USB adapter works great, and was shipped to me in 3 days, for free ! Can't beat 99 cents !

I also added a Harley logo to it, for a little extra class.

Yes, that mod just screams CLASS! lulz

I got it at Tetrax.com. The Xway is a vent mount and the Fixway has a disc that sticks on a surface (dash or other) and can be mounted to that. I chose the Xway so I could remove it on the fly with no sign it was ever there.

Reminds me of my hidden video monitor mod I'm finishing up now. Basically using that area for a hidden 7" video monitor that projects reflection on windshield at night or mirror mounted on back of cover for daytime viewing. I needed some video screen so I can see what my headrest DVD player is doing in the back seat area. Hard to navigate DVD menus from up front on trips when your kid is screaming his show is not on and your driving.
