Default GPS, Ipad, Phone Holder

Hey, just made myself a phone, whatever Ipad holder.

What do you think?

It looks like it was a fun project! it's cool but it seems like too much just for a holder.

I usually don't even take my phone out my pocket since I can listen to my music/GPS and make/receive calls via Bluetooth.

Me. I hate anything in my pocket, the first thing before starting is to empty my pocket otherwise I can not be relaxed. However, the wallet has to be there where my rear pocket is or else I can't drive...

haha I am the complete opposite. I usually have to take my wallet out and I throw it inside the console when I first get in. it's been a habit of mine since I started driving and I've never left it in the truck whenever I get to my destination. I can drive with the phone in my pocket since is in the front and it also helps me not to look at it in the event of a text or something.

Anyways, I like your custom mod. that thing looks like is sturdier than any of the holders in the market and if I had an iPad I might want to have it there too

Yeah! It's very funny in a way. We're all have our quirks.

Thank you. Yes, we don't want to smear our Ford "TOUGH" image with some flimsy holder in there do we?

Hate to be lazy and not do my own research, but I was planning on adding a ram mount for laptop or ipad in my truck, really like your mod. Can you tell me where you sourced the materials?

Absolutely! Here it is. Wish I took more pictures. I had to drill two holes and tapped it with 1/4-20 thread.
