Default New Ipod Mount

Well, I decided to try out something new, so I purchased a new mount on ebay. I had to do a little fabricating to the seat bolt cover, but overall it was an easy install and I think it looks alot better.

What do you guys think?

View from the driver's seat (okay from the driver side window).



A couple of shots from the passenger side.




What I really like is the 15" arm is very stiff and flexible, so I can move it as I want. With my large frame sitting in the passenger seat, this does NOT touch your knee or bother me in any way.

Take care,

Micah

Nope, I only have a carport and I drive it everyday. I do appreciate the compliment.

I like using my ipod in my car as well. Your install is nice,but for me it looks like a little too much.

Micah,
Looks like you could also put your cell phone in there when not using the IPod.

Micha,

I really like the installation mount.

Unlike others on the market it appears this one is multi- function (I.e., iPod, cellular).

Looks good. Do they make a black cable? If not I bet you could get some of that stuff to recolor bumpers and make it black.

The iSimple I posted about a few posts above is basically the same interface box from Peripheral, but comes with the mount (just the plastic thing with rubberized "wing" grips on the side) AND a black cable. So....I bet for those of you that want the black cable, you may be able to buy one separately from Peripheral. It has their logo on the connector just like the white one in the pics, above.

Yeah, black would be perfect, but I am cool with the white cable showing, it really isn't all that much.
