Like many of you, I am looking at organizing the gear in my front cabin (phone/radio/etc) and there just aren't that many options. One of the best locations is down by the ash tray, but there aren't a lot of options to accomplish that. With being on lockdown and having a 3d printer in my garage, I set out to make a mount for my radio head (Kenwood TM-d710ga) and figured I would try and make the design as universal as possible to be of use to others.
This is what I came up with after a couple of rounds of prototyping and figured it was time to put it infront of others for feedback and if they would at all be interested in it if it were to be made available.
It is a simple snap on cover that replaces the current cover, making it simple to return to factory looks. The 1 inch ball makes it compatible with all Ram style mounting options.
These images show the viewing angle from the driver seat, sonce shifted into drive. Obviously due to the dature of the llocation, being in park obstructs the view a bit, but there is clearance. Also, this is just with this particular ram extender, there are tons of other options.
