Works great on the Chevy. Tricky on the FXT. Difference is that on the Chevy the cigarette lighter is always connected, on the FXT its disconnected when the car is off. Mine came with battery clips, so I'll clip to the battery, run the wire outside the back corner of the hood into the edge of the drivers door and then put the panel on the dashboard.
Just realized this is DC1WD and you're talking about a bike... ignore the above (well, not completely, because its still useful info, just not relevant to this conversation)
