Has anyone set up a Starlink Mini in their Bronco? Where did you put the Starlink Mini, on the dashboard? The kit comes with a "Pipe Adapter / Flat Mount, I'm wondering if anyone used their "Accessory Ready" above the windshield to create an mount? I have the "roof rack" adaptor, as my previous Bronco (Sport) had roof racks, however my current Bronco (full size) doesn't have roof racks

Looks like DV8 makes a roof rack for the Bronco, has anyone installed a roof rack (on hard top) kind of expensive. Looks like Smittybilt has the Defender platform Roof for $260 has anyone gone this route?

There are a few here who've done this with the Mini. I recall @TK1215 posting about doing his a few weeks ago.. I know there are others who've done it as well.. Not sure if they used the DV8 rack mount or not though..

If I'm not off-road I keep it above the front seats inside. I keep a mesh bimini on under my hard top since the sun out west can be scorching without some shade while topless. This also creates an "attic" space that perfectly holds the mini. If I am off-road then I have a mount from Amazon bolted to my roof rack and just drop the power cable in through the overlapping weather seal where the front two panels meet the middle panel. Then I slip a silicone cover over the mini to keep any debris from directly hitting it. I like having multiple easy options because I don't always have my roof rack on.IMG_7660.jpg

What roof rack do you have? That's what I'm looking to do with my mini
