I’ll buy the first one, seriously this is holding up a lot of things. I’m going to have to hack something in soon.
Those PAM kits are huge in the Tacoma world, I would love to find one for the 100 series. Something like the 3TPAM

I've never heard of these. But now I have to have one. Let's (I mean it's just you, I'm useless) get it done, @reznunt!
I don't have a tape deck so a 3TPAM mount or similar would be huge for me. I would buy one in a second.
I just asked them and they said they are considering it. I'll make a poll here to gauge interest unless you want to design and manufacture them, and they I won't do crap.
Wow those mounts are cool, I could get into something like that for sure.

If you do, I'd leave some service loops for some slack to move components around easier later on.

Looks slick. You guys know of any offerings available that don't require drilling? A good portion of 100 owners probably don't want to drill into their dash.

Nah, I don't mind at all. Seems like they would be able to get it to market much faster than I could anyway.

Do you know which antenna mount I'd need (if either) for a VHF/UHF antenna like the Comet CA-2X4SR?

If you get that antenna in the NMO version, you can use my NMO (3/4") size antenna bracket.
COMET-NCG CA-2X4SRNMO
Also available on Amazon.
Thank you!

No problem!
One more question, would the 1/2'' CB mount you have listed work with this cable (for the non-NMO antenna) Amazon product ASIN B00SS4Q5Z4 ?

Probably not since it's a SO239. It would need a 5/8" hole. I don't think it's the same as a regular SO239/CB stud which requires a 1/2" hole.
If you need a 5/8" hole you can always get the 1/2" bracket and use a step bit to bore it out an 1/8".
Will the antenna mounts hold much weight? Looking to build some thing so I can roll on/off a 14' ladder (maybe 70 lbs) . I've already broken the spoiler, and cracked my upper tail light. Planning on using 1" pipe with pvc sleeve (roller) - this mount would save me a lot of time trying to machine/build a mount.
EDIT: I think if I mount them backwards, they will work and put the weight on top rather than pulling down. Too late for the sale?
PM me, thanks,
Kevin.

If I had to guess I would say it wouldn't work. They may support the downward force if you box the setup tying it all together at the hood line, but I could see it racking if there is any shear load. It'll definitely rack if you extend the roller up to your roof line unless you triangluate it somehow as well as tie it into your roof rack.
Backwards mounting may or may not work. I haven't tried this. There is a relief cut in the mount to accommodate the curve in the hood line where the mount sits.

Makes sense, thank you again. When I can afford it I'll probably go with the NMO then, sounds pretty straightforward
