ok everyone.... im doing my install today. now i just have the final question about hard drive mounting. the general consensus is to use a hard padding, mount vertically, and mount to something secure in the car.
now i have hard padding, and ive actually built a brass harness for the drive, but my mounting. its a 3.5" drive, and i have one option im considering. shoot me down immediately if im heading in the wrong direction

this is what i used to build my brass harness, which is holding together excellently. now i searched this topic but came up with nothing, and there is a spot on my car where its totally possible to pull this off.
the only thing i found on this topic (yes ive been deliberately vague to this point
) was that u dont have to go this far. and by this far, i mean, i could use that solder weld to secure the brass harness to my cars frame. now im not trying to do something outrageously overprotective in the name of shock protection, but doing this would just seem ideal to me, because where i can weld wuold be the best place to mount the drive in the car anyways.
so if anyone agrees or disagrees, ill be checking back in a little while after the keypad is assembled.
thanks for any advice!
