After being disappointed with a few phone mounting options in the LC, it seemed that the Ram mount would be best for me given the good experience that I've had with them on my motorcycle, Vespa, and bicycles. However, I wanted to find an inconspicuous place to mount the 1" ball. Here is what I came up with:

It's sturdier and more stable than I had anticipated, so very happy with the result.

I accessed the padded panel on the drivers side of the console and cut out a little access hole. It did not effect structural integrity at all. Figure I can easily purchase 1/4" plugs for those if I ever remove the mount, and they would be barely noticeable.

I used some 1/4 hardware, but had to drill the Ram mount holes to accommodate that size button head bolt. I also cut out a washer base for the Ram mount from some 1/16 rubber sheeting I purchased. Except for the hardware, this is what I purchased:

Looks great. I use the RAM wedge for my LINX controller. I just got this RAM compatible phone mount for it. I have the X-grip also, but I think I like this one batter. It is a little cleaner looking for me.

What's the part name/ SKU that connects the double ball adapter to the actual phone holder? IMG_8105
