Bail Mounting a Device with a Swivel Base
Only pan-head machine bolts or self-tapping screws should be
used to secure the swivel base. If you use screws with
countersunk heads, you may damage the mounting bracket.
Some models have the option of adding a swivel base to the bail
mount, so you can turn the device for a wider range of viewing
angles.
NOTE: The ECHOMAP Plus 9x models do not have a swivel
option.

Flush Mounting the Device
Be careful when cutting the hole to flush mount the device.
There is only a small amount of clearance between the case and
the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could
compromise the stability of the device after it is mounted.
Using a metal pry tool such as a screwdriver can damage the
trim caps and the device. Use a plastic pry tool when possible.
You can mount the device in your dashboard using the flush-
mount template and appropriate hardware.

you want to mount the device.
