Figure 2 — Hooks can attach beneath door gaskets
Look under rubber gaskets: Try lifting up the rubber seal-
ing gasket that goes around the rear hatch and door open-
ings. Underneath you will find a “knife-edge” strip of metal:
the hooks often mate well there. In most cases the rubber
stripping can slip back over the knife edge without affecting
door/hatch closing or proper sealing. The steel hooks are
flexible enough that they can be slightly bent or shaped to
the proper angle to allow a custom fit on the door/body edge
of your vehicle. Use a vise-grip and a large pair of pliers to
do this. Try to get the angle right the first time because
repeated bending will stress-weaken the steel.
Straps are abrasion-resistant: The prospect of having a
door or hatch close over the QMS mounting straps may both-
er you at first, but please realize that they are abrasion
resistant, and two straps have a combined thickness of only
about 4 mm, while they retain a tensile strength of over
1000 pounds.
Body openings for cable lead-through. Several leads
must go from the SG-235 coupler (inside the QMS) through
the vehicle body to connect to the SG-500 PowerCube, SG-
2000 Transceiver, and vehicle ground (chassis). Within one
