same here.

After a while, it may start to slide around. Cleaning it off makes it non-slip again. It's a pretty neat compound! I'm contemplating mounting it under my center console, though. And using a smaller knob. That would bring it closer to the driver as well as get it off the ashtray cover - the ashtray cover also covers the accesory power outlet.

Hey how did you hack the griffin? Was it wasy replace the knob?

**ApoloV** · 07-14-2005, 10:36 PM

it all just kinda pops apart.. after poppin the PCB w/ rotary knob i drilled the hole in my center console and used my old stereo's volume knob.

its just a standard knob, you can find generic ones at Rat-Shack...

I'll post a pic of mine... I should have it in the car in the next couple of days.

It's going center console under the e-brake handle.

I love my powermate. Makes driving and changing songs/volume in city traffic worry free.

Btw, the e-brake is not touching the powermate, despite what it might look like in the pics.
