Mounting bracket(s) for my gadgets - I have something in mind

Post by crazytrain »

I've been placing my cell phone on the fold down passenger seat (on a non-slide pad) and it's been working for me, but now I want to use my Dell Axim x50v as a GPS unit (I haven't decided on a GPS receiver yet). So, I've been looking at where I'm going to place all this stuff. After doing some research here I've come up with a solution, but I'm hoping there's something better that I haven't found yet.Basically I've come up with 3 mounting solutions and I'm thinking I'll need all 3. I'd like to mount the Cell Phone, GPS Receiver & Dell Axim. I'm really not interested in suction cups or anything with adhesive. 1 - Panavise: mounts next to radio2 - Bracketron: mounts next to climate controls3 - Kuda: can mount below the BracketronFound searching GenVibe - Thanks for the pics BlueCrush! I hope you don't mind my reposting it here.These three seem like they can mount one below the other and that would work great. What I would really like is something like the Panavise, but long enough to fit 3 devices. Does anyone know if a product like that exists for the Vibe or do you know of a better solution? Thanks!

Be careful, if someone sees the mounting for your stuff their going to know you've got expensive things hidden away in your car.

Yeah, I looked at ProClip, but all they seem to have for the Vibe is this, but thanks for the suggestion

Because of this is usually park right in front of the location I'm working at. I can usually keep an eye on it.

Oh, trdvibe, that's what I'm going for, with just one more device mounted. Thanks for posting that pic. Gives me some indication of what it may actually look like when I get it all done.

There was never any carts near the Vibe, I made sure of that. Now, I'm in the Bakery and I can't do that any more.

Stop by the Publix on Van (removed) and Dale Mabrey, and I'll get you some free B&W cookies. (twenty minutes away from the Bucs and Yankees stadiums) GO BUCS!!

I used to live in Safety Harbor. I went to a few Yankee pre-season games while there but never made it to a Bucs game. I was there when the Sombrero came down though.
