    Victron GX Touch Mounting Location 349m-r

    Have a 21 349m-r with OEM solar and gen set. Recently upgraded MPPT controller to Victron, 2 300aH batteries, and additional 300w panel (600w total). Love the setup so far, but want more.

    Next step/upgrade will involve mounting the Victron's GX Touch head unit somewhere in the coach. I would like either on the same wall as the OneControl display (left of entry door) or on wall between TV and bathroom door (above breaker panel). Curious how to run the HDMI cable from basement through wall with minimum drilling.

    Looking for what others have done. Pics would be a bonus.

    Thank you!

    I mounted our GX panel and the BMV monitor in the cabinet above the coffee bar area.

    To make the wire routing easier, I cut a hole in the wall behind a drawer that went down to the area where our breaker panel wires fed into the basement. Trying to fish wires through the hole where GD ran the wires for the control panel was almost impossible. This is the factory hole for the breaker panel:

    And the new hole I made above it to gain access to the area where the GX is:
