Or just simply trim off the plastic sections on the left and right.

Occam's Razor: “the simplest solution is almost always the best.”

Thanks for doing that @BenCC , much appreciated. @Ayune That looks like it works a treat. I have pulled my switch part out and realised that we would also need to exchange the circuit board cover to ensure that M2V2 (left or right version) will fit. It is easy to remove (4 screws), no problems just a little larger parcel and some better packaging. If you still want to go ahead let me know.

Cool. I’ll remove mine tomorrow and see what y’all are talking about. Sounds like it’ll work well.

Not this quick haha.

I apologize if this has already been covered - I haven’t read the entire 64 page thread

Do you know if the overhead console mounts that replace the sunglasses holder will fit a GX470? Specifically the M1, M4, M5.

I can get dimensions if that helps

I just finished reading every page of this thread. Nothing excites me more than the new front cup holder. I spill a little coffee almost every time I drive my LC100. This new design will be amazing. Thank you @BenCC for making all of this awesome stuff. Where does the line form for the cup holders? (count me in).

 

[neilsen100]

I'm in as well for a cup holder.

That turned out great Ben! Thanks again. For any of us with aftermarket bluetooth radios, this should provide a very slick microphone solution. Even if your switch panel is located somewhere else, this would be very useful. The aftermarket solution of "stick it on the dash/steering column with double-sided tape" just wasn't doing it for me any longer.

How did this work for you? Trying to figure out exactly how i want to set everything up with all the options BenCC provides, and I like this one.

As always, mail me your overhead console haha
I don’t think they will fit GX470. This is from my experiment with Toyota trucks. There are 5 different types of overhead console on Tacoma of same generation.
Mailing me your console is the best way.

With multiple design revisions and prototypes, I still don’t like it. I like all my previously released makes. I have to personally like it and have it on my truck before the formal release.

That is what you call a "labor of love"!!

I’m totally willing to test a prototype for feedback!!!

Got these Toyota butterflies and inserts in today.

The two inserts are almost identical. 66991-35030 is only 2 mm deeper than 55616-35010.
The two butterflies differ in the slots. I think I can modify the key on cuphoder to accept both types.

Plan is still use the butterfly. But I will try to see if the rubber inserts can still be used somehow.

@EnglishCriminal
This is a ridiculously strong magnet. It definitely can hold your radio microphone. It even holds my fully loaded Glock 20.

Make 2 V3: Magnetic Mic Mount

1. Overview of the Final Product

2 Description

M2V3 mounts a Magnetic Mic which is designed to securely hold the radio microphone in place. Similarly to M2V2, M2V2 has a backing bracket to increase the structural rigidity. All fasteners are stainless steel and included. Magnetic Mic is not included.

The magnet is ridiculously strong. It definitely can hold something heavier than a radio microphone.
