Garmin BC-35 mount for Winnebago Micro Minnie

thingiverse

I designed this mount after purchasing a 2021 Winnebago Micro Minnie 2100BH which has a plate and socket for another brand of camera that it came with. Their socket wires up to the running lights, so the camera will be powered so long as your lights are on. Somewhat less desirable than wiring to the backup lights, but this way you can use the camera without being in reverse, so maybe its a win. I found the signal strength of the Garmin BC-35 to be inadequate to go through the camper to the dashboard of the car. This necessitated me mounting the transmitted box on the roof of the camper. While I COULD have potentially made a mess out of the ceiling of my new Winnebago I decided not to go the route of mounting it inside. Nobody sees the roof anyway. I printed this in ASA which is really durable outdoors and IMHO easier to print with than ABS.
