ARCHIVE Useless cubby insert into something less useless?

Very Sturdy for any small item that you need to hang off of it. I'm looking to use it for iphone, HT HAM Radio, etc. I bet it will also be good for a mini-tablet.

NLXTACY, if you decide to do something with the useless ashtray location, I'm in for that too. I fabbed a bracket for my scangauge but would be interested in seeing what you come up with.



 
Josh VF sent me this pic. Worked out great, I’m happy.

I think this cubby block is starting to move closer to my buy button.

I can pair this: RAM 1" Ball Medium Length Double Socket Arm with 2.5" Round Base that contains the AMPs Hole Pattern Unpackaged - RAM-B-103U | RAM Mounts
with this: PopSockets Mount

Installing a ram ball on the cubby, then use that ram arm upside down so the flat face is out to stick that pop socket doo-dad onto.

@NLXTACY any chances we could get an opening to add one of these to the cubby filler? 1ft USB 2.0 Panel-Mount Type A Male to Type A Female Cable

I’d say that’s a pretty interesting idea especially since it would be flush and still use the angle block if needed. I’ll order one up and take a look.
 
The two right hand switch slots on my '94 are blanks. Would this block fit with a little dashboard massaging or is it a completely different animal on the '94 ?
 
Do you need the switch blanks removed or just general area?

Not sure about 94s but on 95-97 there is a cubby that some use a cupholder. There is a 3D printed piece that was made that uses switch inserts. If that is the piece you are talking about then yes, that would need to be removed.
 
Ok. I will grab some pictures in the morning.
 
Heres a simple mod for anyone,like myself, that is using this as an iPad mount. The iPad mini had a little bit more bouncing around than I liked. Today I added a piece of 1/4” vibration foam to the lbottom and top of the insert and it took out most of the slop.

I need to hit some dirt for testing but initial hand test seems like it works. A second piece might be able to be wedged on the top for more solid mounting.
 
Any further feedback on whether this is suitable to support a full sized table with case on rough roads?

Tablet is fine, case I guess it depends the weight if it. Rough roads Id say keep expectations lower. Some say it’s fine and others say it moves to much. It’s only supported by two screws into plastic. Only so much I can do 😜
