MOD: A-Pillar RAM mount GPS/Phone holder

long, short, articulating, gps cradle, go pro, xgrip....I use it all. Standard every day = long arm/xgrip for fon. As has been stated, it can be positioned totally out of way for driving but finger distance away from wheel with hand still on wheel. Great stuff. Put mount on both sides so passenger can use stuff too or additional spot for something you don't need to handle while driving. Also have suction cup mount to use all of the above stuff in any other vehicle I drive or ride in. My car for instance....no oh shit handle there like in truck.

 

I ran straight to the battery so I can have power whenever, the usb/volt meter has it's own fuse that I left long enough down by the tray with the other fuses

 

I'm getting a dual usb one, that way I can also charge an anker battery pack and have it sit in the flip up cubby below.

 

Finally got it mounted thanks @motionridr8 for the hardware. This is perfect spot for my GPS while driving. No more suction cups or window vent mounts for me!

I have an Android so I'm using the first one but 12 inches instead of 6 and a magnetic plug. Look back in the thread and I have images of all 3 items I used

 

I'm new to the party so I didn't read through all 36 pages lol but my friend sent me the link to that short cable this morning so I figured if itd help ya out its worth sharing. I have the Note 8 but all my slots are full, are others just running the USB from the center? Thats my plan for now but may add a single USB to that side somewhere.

 

Mine were full as well, I pulled the RSCA button and have it hidden behind the other buttons, when I go off roading I can still access it through the small fuse door.

 

hmmm thats a possible solution too.

 

I'll take a set please!

 

shoot me a PM!

 

Will this kit work on the 4runner too?

 

Ordered mine today! Thanks @motionridr8 got my bolt yesterday!

 

No idea. Id guess if the grab bar is similar and bolt size the same, but I don’t have a 4Runner so not sure...

 

Installed my A-Pillar RAM mount today. My phone just barely fits in it though. Is there a slightly larger version? I have to max it out to cram a galaxy grand prime in there. Works fine as is, just seems a little tight.

 

Are you using an X-grip? I remember that they made different sizes for different devices.
