Ask the dealer where you purchased your SYSTEM-H2EC about professional installation options. One option is to have the dealer mount the Pivot of the Car Windshield Docking Base to the console or other available location in the vehicle. There are four screws to remove. The Pivot screw holes match the AMPS standard for mounting systems, so any AMPS-compatible bracket for your vehicle will accept the Pivot of the Docking Base. Many car audio dealers carry these brackets.

•Do not install Here2Everywhere where it may obstruct your view through the windshield or your view of your vehicle’s indicator displays.

•Do not install Here2Everywhere where it will hinder your access to the vehicle’s controls.

•Do not install Here2Everywhere where it may hinder the function of safety devices such as an airbag. Doing so may prevent the air-bag from functioning properly in the event of an accident.
