    Yeah I'm just thinking of making something up and adapting it to the cheapie I've got. Just make a bracket that will work with the jesus bar or screw into the dash (maybe) and screw into the cradle part. . . Get rid of the suction cap which reduces vision anyway. . . On my long list of things to do . . .

    I see ram make a pipe clamp attachment which you would replace the suction cup with. You could clamp it around the Jesus bar.

    all you need now is a USB socket next to the ball so you dont have wires running every where... that was my plan to do..

    just one question for you.. what was the length of the arm???
    Hi Mal, I took those pics a while ago and have since mounted a dual Narva USB plug on the left hand side of the pocket so it keeps all the wires in check. It works a treat. Here is the parts list I used.



    I've also put a small piece of felt on the bottom side of the arm where it rest on the front edge of the pocket as it was starting to leave a tiny mark. No issues now. I've been off road many times with this from mild to relatively wild and driven all over the VIC HIgh Country and it doesn't move, vibrate or carry on. It just sits there as if it was a permanent fixture.

    Check my write up of a RAM Mount with bigger balls (1.5") here. Didn't require pulling the dash apart. The set up has been tested over 15,000k of tough tracks, vibrates a bit on corrugations, else works well.

    That's exactly how mine is except I put the locking wing nut down so it touches the base of the glove box so it doesn't bounce at all.

    Just looking for new mounting options as my last one basically has melted on the windscreen and Ram Mount seems to be the one to use.

    Those with the older GU dash, are you using the long double clamp to get it closer to you?. My present one is around 220mm from windscreen to basically edge of the dash. This way I can actually press it almost without taking my hands off the steering wheel.

    Down here thats illegal mounting it on the centre of the Dash. still has me beat why you want/need these things.
    Just look at a map, PPL are relying too much on electronics.
    We made it to Cape York in 83 with just paper maps via the creb track.
    and made it to Birdsville using the same , makes me laugh when I see stuff like this.
    It it legal to even have them.................... I've seen the guys on All 4 adventure use there tablet
    but its not bolted to the dash PML

    to me its over complcating navigation. Surely as an eg you can get to Broome without a tablet to look at lol
    waste of space,,,,,, wonder what would of happen to Billy if he had a tablet bracket sticking out of his dash.
    Not a fan sorry
    Any mod really needs a cert as you should know ,
