Title says it all. Made a plate to hold the ignition and traqmate displays where the radio once was.

The back of the TM display unit has four small screw holes... what size are these?

Edit: Looks like computer screws fit... the ones that hold in the video card and hard drives etc. Still no clue what size they are but being a computer nerd, I have a TON of these around.

Being a nerd, did you try to screw any of them in to see if they fit? J/K!!!

I did right after I posted... and they do fit.

I may be a geek, but I hadn't thought about trying those screws at the time.

I used industrial velcro on a radio delete plate. It hold very firm and tight, and yet is removable to take home and download to the computer.

Yeah... I used to have a removable setup, but now it is a dedicated race car. Still easy enough to remove the whole plate with two screws, as the wires for the ignition and Traqmate both have inline disconnects. I use a laptop for Traqmate data anyway, so I just hook it up right in the car.

Thanks...
