I just put a small relay (reed relay) from radio shack in the garage door opener. Then wire the contacts to the 12 on the accy switch under the seat. When accy switch is on relay completes the circuit and the garage door opener works.

Wires to NO on the realy and 12
 
I'm new to this forum,and don,t know how to bring up your images. I am looking for a way to mount a GPS on my new RG. Thanks in advance for your help.

What I did on mine was use the Kuryakin fuel door mount. I like it because it doesnt clutter up the bar or dash area. I think it was like $60
 
I have not gone through all the threads here to see if this has been done and how but here is my solution to getting a plug in the tour-pak for charging cell phones etc:

Supplies needed:

HD supplementary power source kit # 91843-97 ($19.99)
Power wire with fuse
Plug for battery tender ($2.99 shipped from eBay)

I have an Ultra with the tour-pak insert. I found there is room (barley) in the back corner in front of the antenna.



Then I cut a hole to mount the power adapter as close to the corner shelf as I could. There is barely enough room for it so make sure it is as close as possible.



I then wired the fused power wire through the grommet that the other wiring goes through.



Run the wire down near the battery and connect the tender plug end to it.



Run the wire down to your battery tender plug and plug it in.
It ended up being a nice clean installation. Now I have power in the tour-pak for under $30.
 
Nice job 1of2!! This a really good idea. I think I will do it to mine.

I was wondering if you hooked that up to a switched power soruce? Just a thought so you wouldn't go off and leave something draining the battery when you walk away.
 
Do you find that the tour pack liner is sturdy enough for the pushing and pulling your plugs in and out of the socket, or did you have to reinforce the back?
