Hey everyone! I've been searching high and low for better Kessil A160 canopy mounting options for a while now and haven't been able to find any. A few weeks ago, our garage door opener took a dive and we had to replace it. The new opener came with some metal hanging brackets and I got an idea. I had the Kessil 90 degree adapter from when I used to use the goose neck. I mounted this to the metal bracket and bingo! The best part is that the two holes on each end are exactly 24 inches apart, so they'll be centered over a 4 foot tank like my 75. Then just zip the mount into the canopy and you're good to go. Hopefully this helps someone. :)
