Tyler,

Your plan to try the Victron & Yandina sounds as if it will yield useful
information. You haven't said which Yandina you use. If it's the C100,
you may want to try the silent mount I used when I had one: I screwed a
short piece of aluminum angle to the firewall. With that little shelf to
support the weight, I used double-sided foam tape to hold the C100 in
place. My having never heard any "clunks" may not mean a whole lot though,
given my hearing. :-)
