Do any of you have a good source for a stereo jack for music input into my Garmin GMA-340. I plan to put it in my panel (Affordable Panel) that’s about 90 thousands thick. I have looked at Radio Shack here but they don’t have anything that will reach through the panel and the jack looks pretty flimsy anyway.  

<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>  

I would appreciate any help.

I’d check out mouser.com or digikey for a jack.  They have TONS of stuff, so they should have a good quality jack for you.  

   

Do not archive.

Others have suggested sources for jacks. If you don't have any luck 

finding a jack with a longer reach, you could

1. mill the back side of the panel around the mounting hole (doable with 

a drill press & end mill, if you take your time)

or

2. drill the panel large enough to clear whatever plug you intend to use 

& rivet a thin doubler behind it, drilled for the jack

Look around your  block....  When you find a house with a small forest of

antennas where the back yard used to be you have probably found an Amateur

radio enthusiast.... ( ham)  He/She will probably fix you up with the right

jack and help with the soldering etc.  Most hams have a pretty good

electronics background so he may be of help with things like fuel senders

and general wiring practices.  Better than that it probably won't take too

much talking to get them interested!  The opportunity of taking a picture of

their personal forest from 1000' would also sweeten the deal.
