Hi folks...after Christmas ( dont have time before ) I will be installing a new garmin 595 LM GPS / handlebar mount ( RAM ) to my 2018/19 PCX 125.
I need to get power direct from the battery or fuse box and also run comms cables back from the handle bar mount to under the seat area.
Can anyone advise on correct procedure on panel removal to facilitate this installation ?
PM and I can send email address if required for files / videos etc
thankyou

So presumably it’ll only be audio out that will be used for directions. Doesn’t it have Bluetooth?
Not being arsey, just interested as I’ve always considered fitting gps. My aspirations were a old car unit from a switched live from behind the headlights.

Yes..it has both ....so I can use wired and / or bluetooth headsets
I ahem an autocom world intercom set up on one of my there bikes and its great --- no issues with batteries being charged..I also have a wireless intercom which is ''ok'' but not as good as wired ...So the garnin just gives me flexibility and you can also plug in normal ear phones too
