I have had an XR-700 crane unit in my 914 for 6 years - real pita to put in. Had to mount the optical pickup coil on the cheapo arm that was supplied and just really have not liked it. I am thinking of making some sort of decent mount that would drop in and make this easier to install, since I have another one to do.

But before I do this - are they all like this? I hear +/- on the Pertronox units. What about others - or did I use the dumb way to mount mine?
