    That's the antenna for my remote starter.

    Hopefully they hop on board! I posted on T4R already :)

    I seemed to miss the 1" on the site, sorry about that.

    Hardware would be appreciated!

    I'm very happy about the overall product. I was unsure about having my mirror up so high, but I actually like it quite a bit!

    As far as the set screw, mine was crooked and also had about 1/32" or 1/64" of wiggle to it. It tightened down however, but I just thought I would throw that in there so you can refine for the next run and get a 100% solid, bulletproof product every time.

    I'll post a review when my RAM accessories show up (and if I find some bolts lol)

    That's not true. My interior looks like that and I've only left the pavement once.

    Actually...you'd be the 3rd Canadian to purchase...and the 2nd 4runner that we are aware of. The other one was an '05...if the mirrors are the same it will work for sure. I'd need a pic of your mirror to know for sure. PM me one if you can.

    Good pic...but I can't tell from the pic. I need to see the window "button" and the back of the mirror base. It looks promising. If it installs on the classic dovetail it should work. If you can take the mirror off and get a pic of the window dovetail that would help.

    10-24 bonehead, that's why yours didn't fit/ thread very well.

    Cut the oem bracket. Hacksaw, 2 minutes. Filed smooth.

    he6u2azy_b18561522339e7e71e4b97602f6dad3be7feb4c2.jpg

    All installed. Wiring connector was just a smudge too short to fit completely in the headliner. Still a clean look, easy install, and a clearer field of vision out the front!

    And am i gratefull you did ask me as i got to tweaking my mirror adjuster and with a small amount of force ive manipulated my mirror into the exact position that your riser would put it in. And i would never use any other attachments to the ball adapter as its not ideal for this small window veiw as is. So really i no longer need your riser. But thanks for the discovery help and good luck with the sales of your product.

    What size is the Ram Ball? I just got the Nokia Wireless Car Charger CR-200 and am trying to figure out the size of the ball in there. I measures it with the calipers I have. came up with ~.8 inches. I was thinking of removing the base and leaving the ball there. Then getting the Ram Ball ARM for it.

    Can you give me the specs on that one you sell?

    ALso, you sell the arms?>

    [​IMG]

    I removed the complete base, and decided to reassemble it until I find a solution. I could just use the circle base pad, then stick it to the relocation mount. Attaching the holder to that.

    Quick article with a vid and pics.

    http://www.rammount.com/Products/Components/tabid/798/Default.aspx

    So If I got an Inch ball would the arm accomodate a smaller ball? like a 3/4inch or my .8 inch? Are there shims? Spacers? etc?
