I did the same thing as FD Rey did.



There's the small bar on the UIM in the front that can be used for mounting.

I created a small bracket, drilled and tapped that small bar and bolted the bracket to it. I then bolted up the FPR to the bracket. One trick for my setup was that there's two small screws in the back of the FPR that mounts the bracket. I drilled 2 holes in my bracket so I can get an allan wrench in to put it on.
