Garmin BC40 Backup Camera Mount

prusaprinters

<p>I bought a Garmin BC40 backup camera to put on the back of my RV. This unit came mounted to an aluminum bracket that attaches to your license plate. Since I wanted to have the camera in the middle of the back end of my RV, I created a mounting plate that replaces the aluminum bracket and gets mounted to the vehicle using "Gorilla" mounting tape. I used PETG since this is for outdoor use.</p> <p>Parts Needed: 2 nuts that will thread onto the "angle position" bolts</p> <p>Double sided Gorilla Mounting Tape</p> <p>Here is how you would use it:</p> <p>Step 1: 3D print the new mounting plate</p> <p>Step 2: unscrew the 8 tiny screws in the back of the Garmin mount that attach the black</p> <p>bracket to the aluminum frame.</p> <p>Step 3: Unscrew the 2 bolts on the Garmin bracket that allow you to alter the angle of the</p> <p>mounting bracket (these screws go into threaded inserts in the aluminum bracket).</p> <p>Step 4: Find 2 small nuts that will thread onto the angle mounting bolts and place them in</p> <p>the recessed cavity on the 3D printed mount and screw the Garmin mount onto the</p> <p>3D printed mount using the 2 angle bolts (loosely for now).</p> <p>Step 5: From the back of the 3D printed mount, screw on the 8 mounting screws you</p> <p>removed earlier.</p> <p>Step 6: Attach the mount to your vehicle using the double sided Gorilla Tape and adjust</p> <p>the angle to suit your preference.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>CR-10S</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>.2</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>80</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> SunLu PETG </p></p> Category: Automotive
