    Hey all,

    Anyone have any interesting in cab mount options they'd like to share?

    Im looking to have a secure mount for my celestron thermotorch 10 and Gerber knife in the cab.

    I like the idea if mounting the light at the base of the drivers seat, but having a hard time finding a clamp that would work.

    Knife I'm thinking of maybe fabricating something up between the front bolt mounts if the seat?

    Anywho heres what I'm working with. 20200112_123156.jpg

    This looks like it would work for those two items.
    If you’re tall, the front blocks are great.
    If you’re short, then it might not be good for you.

    It’s a super handy adjustable wrench.

    I'm sorry for such a stupid question, but are you just sticking the velcro right to the carpet and it will hold that kind of weight? Could you take a pic zoomed out just a little bit, I am just trying to visualize exactly where this is in your truck. I really dig that setup.

    Yep, it’s just stuck to the carpet on the transmission hump. To be honest, it holds so well it almost pulls the carpet out when I’ve tried to remove them. They don’t budge one bit.
