HEX ezCAN location R1200 GS

[88bmwjeff]

I'm in the process (for me a very slow process) of installing auxiliary lights with a HEX ezCAN. It's taken me (for what seems like an eternity to run the wires and install the lights, but better slow and right than quick and ... well you know. I've watched HEX's video and others on installation. It seems to me that most have the ezCAN installed in a way where it can be accessed by just removing the rear seat. However, there doesn't seem to be enough room with the lean angle sensor (I think that's what it is) and the tire pressure monitor. Currently, I have the rear silver "trim" piece (the one under the seat that the seats lock into as well as the top mounting points for the side cases) off for full access.

Can someone post a picture of how they installed the ezCAN? Thanks.

From one of the threads below...seems to indicate that under the pillion seat is the typical spot:

Might be a different bike, etc., but some ideas.

Mine lived on my 15 RT and now the 17.5 GS here.

Success

Slow and methodical wins the day. It took way longer than I’m ready to admit to, but I have success. D2 lights work as does the brake light. Thanks Lee for the photo. That was invaluable and it helped me select the proper routing of the wires.
