100 Series Cupholders, Dome Lights, RAM Mounts & More - Cruiser Design & Manufacturing

Thanks for working on it! Do you think a lower profile design would be possible?

Had a bunch of the same comment over on the FB group, dropped the height of the redirect and the width of the exit-flow and came to this. Going to print and reupload some pictures, but the final design will look similar to this one.

Thanks for making these.. not entirely sure i'll use all three but someone local will use the last one if i don't. My doggo will appreciate the extra breeze..

Thanks for the support! Still finalizing this design but they should still ship out next week. Just making sure I can print them in a way that all exterior surfaces are nice and smooth.

No hurry at all. Make it however you want before sending. Just don't see a need to have ac blowing on the fridge and drawers. The middle one might block rear view so I will prob start with the two outside ones first.

 

[CruiserDM]

Third Row Vent's have been redesigned to be nice and low profile, mount using stainless bolts as is standard on all of our parts, and don't block the rearview whatsoever. These are now shipping.

Install video coming soon! Only two out of three installed here but you get the idea.

I keep asking for a cell phone mount that works with a pop socket but no dice.

Seriously, it needs to be located where you can see it while driving but not blocking the radio. Pop sockets are awesome.

@DuckLN this might work for your needs. Builds - Benjamin’s 3D Prints Build - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/benjamins-3d-prints-build.1171700/page-126#post-13949645
And my phone tells me my vent redirects are en route. Doggo says thank you. She normally rides in back when the second row is in place. This trip I pulled the second row and installed a sleeping platform.

Has anyone install the window switches on an 03+ LX? IIRC the switches are physically different

Recent new additions to the store:

An affordable grab bar RAM Ball mount kit along with a Scangauge mount:

An "XXL" cupholder for those of you that are deathly attached to your Nalgenes and other huge bottles (4" Diameter, 4" Deep):

And last but not least, a smooth finish on the shifter trim plate (This finish will also now be on the window switch panels as well, no more textured unless requested):

Nice work,

Is that the C-Size ram mount ?

Nice work,

Is that the C-Size ram mount ?

It is the 1" ball, so B-Size.

Any thoughts on things to do with the ash tray opening? I have the ashtray out and stick my phone in there, but seems like there could be a better use for that spot.

I've got a couple mounts available there, one is a dedicated phone tray and the other a scangauge mount. Definitely open to ideas though.

Probably my most long-awaited design by far. Third Row Vent Redirects. This allows those of you with functioning rear A/C to redirect that air back to your 2nd row to cool off your kids, dogs, wife, etc.

This was a tricky design because the original vent assembly screws together from the back of the headliner. With that being said, once you rip the old one out you probably aren't getting it back in without dropping the headliner so take note of that before ordering. This design has you remove the old vent, slide in two nut plates right behind the headliner, then bolt up the panel shown below.

The redirect vent then bolts on to that piece, redirecting the air back to the 2nd row.

Discrete block off plates will also be available for those of you who have disconnected your rear a/c lines.

Pre-Order is now live, with the first kits being shipped May 15th at the latest. All stainless steel hardware included. Install video coming soon. These will be available in Black and Tan. Finish shown on green part is not indicative of final part, surface will be clean and free of marks/defects. Still a bit of smoothing/chamfering to be done so it's a bit prettier before the design is final.

I love the vent redirect. I had this idea a long time ago. One suggestion would be to refine the sharp edges to be a little more soft? curve the edges a bit smoother, I can totally see stuff get hung up on these as I throw towels and things in the back. One final thing to add if you could put fins to direct the air would be pretty awesome.

Yeah I should’ve uploaded newer pics to this thread. The current design is a lot more low profile with fins pointing left and right to push the air around a bit

This one is going to be a money maker for sure, good work!

Now offering some Rear Cargo Area Dome Light replacements that utilize KC Cyclone V2 Rock lights. These provide a 600 Lumen 360 degree very bright light that will put an end to digging through gear in the dark.

This is much brighter than a standard LED bulb replacement, requires no wiring on your end, and installs in all of about 10 minutes or less.

This kit includes a bulb adapter so your original dome light switch and door/on/off functionality remains. You simply remove the clear lens and original bulb, unscrew the bracket from the headliner, insert new bulb, and screw in bracket+light and you're done.

Now available here

Hoping to get a nice setup using two of these lights for the second row dome to provide tons of light up front shortly.

After just about two years of serving the community we have finally got some Illuminated Shifter Trim Plates available with a nice smooth finish. With optional LED bulb replacement these are a big improvement over the bubbling OEM plates that inhabit most 100 series.

We also have expanded some of our interior light options with the new Dome Light and door light replacements for all 100 series LC/LX models. These utilize a KC Cyclone Rock Light and are super bright while maintaining factory function (Door/Off/On) and circuitry.

Currently working on a clean underhood mount light solution using the same bulbs. Thank you all so much for your support!
