Lots of dead ends today

Today was the day to mount my GPS....Oh I have a few different models, some long gone. The mounts I just got were for a model I no longer have...my bad. Next, when I tried to install a pair of horns I found that the factory had installed the horn in a place where nothing else would fit. There's no chance my pair of aftermarket horns will go there. Now for plan B. Finally, I dredged up a bit of scrap aluminum and made a side stand foot (had to salvage the day somehow).
That's 1/2" aluminum for the foot and thinner stock to lock it into place.

installed it's still a bit clunky but certainly gives more purchase than the stock foot.
The next project is to install a fuze block so I can wire up heated gear and other stuff. I just found that the two Aux leads that are wired into the wiring harness are individually switched...in other words, you can use #1 or #2 but not both. CSC wires the aux LED lights to #2 so #1 is pretty useless unless you have some special farkle to use without running the aux lights.
