Road Angel!

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to use this as a GPS device? It has some sort of connectors on the back other than the USB and power one so I wondered if I could use this?

Yes you can, I have sold these to do this job and work pretty well, although you have to keep disconnecting the serial lead to hide the unit unlike an ordinary gps mouse or antenna.

Do you know of anywhere I can get a lead and how easy this is to do?
