Taco Garage - Dashtop Multi-Mount (DMM) - Securely mount ANYTHING to your dash

Thanks.. going to be needing something like this in the near future... now to find the spare ball mount I ordered

 

I like the mount but I question everyone’s definition of “rock solid”. The trim bezel tabs and dash are so flimsy my phone shakes like it’s having seizures.

Wondering if @MESO could make up some reinforcements for the dash as shown in the video link (around 14:30).

The Hondo vent mount was more solid but the DMM is more useful...

 

Any time that an arm is horizontal, you are going to get shakes. The Hondo was more stiff because the arm was more vertical.

 

Just installed mine, installation is simple. What a cool product. Thanks, Taco Garage.

 

#10 drill bit is reeeeeeally close to a 3/16" in decimal, #10 is .193 and 3/16" is .187 its only a .006 differnce but when you have a bunch of holes that need to line up if you drill with too tight of a tolerance it can make things a bit harder, thats why I keep calling out for a #10, but 3/16" will work too. 5mm works also. 5mm is actually a bit larger than #10.

 

I see an install kit option... a #10 drill bit and a a few of the big binder clips to be used as clamps, and a small thin tappet style wrench to help tighten up the nuts inside next to the tabs

 

I will have some for sale in the next week or two

 

I actually have the bits and the clamps ready, I just finished up a cad drawing of the wrench and just have to find someone to cut up a bunch of them, depending on how cheap i can get the wrenches im trying to make it a $5 add on to the dmm for installation tool kit.
I couldnt find the right wrenches anywhere online so I designed my own with a very slim profile.

 

Thanks . I have it installed already. Very easy and it's working great

 

Received my order yesterday, now to find the time to get it installed.

 

This is super easy. Took me about an hour following the video step by step!

 

Anyone have pics of the big squeeze mounted close to dash level? Preferably with an iPad mounted

 

Anyone know the specs on the threads for this ball? Or, if they can be bought anywhere but here? I need one pronto and ordered from @FreshMexicanTaco a week ago, was charged and no shipment or communication since

 

1/4-20 I believe. RAM has a large website. I get most of mine from Amazon or direct.

 

I've looked at those 1/4-20 and it just looks way coarser than the stuff that comes with DMM.

I'm wondering if it is this?

10-32, I think the size is buried somewhere in this thread.

 

I vaguely remember this being the size as well

 

Thanks guys, I scanned through half the thread and figured it would be easier to ask

 

I have two that I am not currently using and I will be in Bowling Green late Wednesday night and at Beach Bend Raceway early Thursday morning for the weekend NMRA race. Where in Central Kentucky are you located??? I could bring you one of mine if that would help???

 

Whoops. Yeah that's it. Their other threaded mounts are 1/4-20. I should just go to sleep now.
