    Looks great man,

    Long live the TechDeck...

    I'm trying to find a way to better brace my iPad for PDF map uses to it...
    But I don't want to move my phone from the right side, lol...

    Time to experiment.

    Also what's up above your seat belt webbing shoulder location? Looks like speakers?

    I did my doors, but I need to do the roof too. Hate how rain sounds like rocks when it hits.

    Yup one speaker for CB the other for HAM.

    Added one to the truck

    User a 60mm bolt and 2 nesting spacers slightly cut down. Going to mod the cover to put it back on. Used a wire-in power supply in the headliner area to run the Garmin Nuvi 50 with a specific holster by RAM. Very sturdy.

    I like that 90 degree arm,

    I have short, 4" and a 6" arm that I use on an iPad but might look into the 90 deg pivot arm...

    So did all of you order through RAM or is there a preferred cheaper alternate site?
