Just received my "ProClip" parts. Wasn't cheap, but it mounts VERY well.
The DashDAQ comes with a "Dual T" adapter plate. This plate can be used with a variety of products. I found it to fit well with the ProClip products.
ProClip Mounting System*-*Device Holders and Dashboard Vehicle Mounts
These two parts are all that is needed from ProClip:
2 Prong (Dual T) Mounting Plate with Tilt Swivel - part # 215199 ($34.99)
ProClip Center Mount 2005-2007 Ford F-250 - part # 853546 ($29.99)
I also used the quick connects (called the move kit), but I do not think it is necessary (but it could be because these adapters provide a little bit of extra clearance for the cord). A "move kit" costs another $10.
This system mounts it just above the vent that is between the radio and the steering column. Easy to take on and off. Does not affect front windshield visibility.
Pictures tomorrow!!!

Mark,
Have you played with any of the FICM voltage displays?
I have been doing some experimenting I think I may be on to something. I performed the 58V mod on a spare FICM I had and after the mod, no matter what the operating condition the main FICM voltage reads 13.625V. On the old FICM (which was going bad) I would see voltage displays all over the map ranging from about 6V up to 12.2V. Before I replaced the FICM I measured the output directly and found it to be in the 48V range when the FICM was warm, the DD was showing ~12V. Thus I now believe that to display proper FICM main voltage on the DD you must scale the signal by 4x and the maximum voltage readable is 54.5V.
If you have a chance to try this let me know if it looks reasonable. I can't right now because my FICM is over what I believe is the maximum.
Thanks

Did you ever come to a conclusion as to what you were reading in regards to FICM voltage?
