Craig: Right on about the three wheels, and I'd rather do my ground looping in the Morgan. Agree totally on the idea of a Texas Morgan 3W pilot's association.

Congrats on your wheels! I love your spec, it looks great. Hope to see you around town. I'm still on the fence on ordering one. Maybe next year...

Got to admit - I am quite happy with the storage bag (as side pockets weren't available when I ordered) - the bracket really makes the install clean and allows the bag to be removed easily, and it will hold my goggles, phone, and gate remote.

I've see some installs that use a cylindrical motorcycle fork bag attached to the crossbar in the passenger foot well with straps...the problem is most have a buckle closure that makes quick access difficult.

Poppa...I bought some high adhesive hook and loop (velcro) from McMaster Carr http://www.mcmaster.com/#hook-and-loop-fasteners/=pn2bi9.

I then attached the hook side to the horizontal metal firewall in the passenger compartment. I used 2" hook & loop so I would have room to change the position of the bag if I wanted it lower or higher (sorry about the poor iphone quality pics...too lazy to break out the SLR):



I then cut the loop section and affixed it to the bracket:



Position the backet where you'd like on the firewall and you're set:





Once you're sure about the position you like and you've lived with it a few days, you can drill two holes in the firewall and permanently bolt it in. I bought some chrome (completely unnecessary) buttonhead allen bolts with a 1/2 inch spacer to move the bag forward a touch - but I will probably remove the spacer as the bag works better for a passenger closer to the firewall. I bought some neoprene washers to insert between any metal to metal contact to cut down on rattling.

However, I suspect the velcro will work just fine as a permanent solution as well, with the added benefit of not permanently modifying the car One day you may want to ditch the bag, in which case you'll just have a hell of a time removing the industrial adhesive from the firewall!

I also affixed the front vanity plate with 3M automotive trim tape it's amazingly strong stuff, but we'll see how it does with the heat

Thanks for the pictures and the instuctions Crowbar. Nicely done! I am thinking of keeping mine on the chain so I can carry the stuff out of the M3W and with me when I leave it. And I have ordered the tape a few days ago after reading your post on liscence plates. Where did you get the Mog front plate? Looks super.
