Thread: LCD mount with arm...

An Idea I had 'back in the day' was to use a hand free kit used normally for cheap mobiles. I never went any further with this idea than a few diagrams and such. Howver my plan was to 'hold' the screen using slim line magents from any hardware store and plaec over the top of the magnet a thin peice of metal and use this as a conductive surface for the connections. So in short youd place the screen onto the 'holder' and the magnets would hold it and create the connections for the plug, I dropped the Idea cause I frowned on the idea of having a live 12v plate in the car, if you follow.
Anyway Ive seen crazier things work from even stupider ideas.

Cheers,
Mik.

I just mounted mine using a flex-arm. It's VERY durable and doesn't move/sway at all. Requires some force in order to flex it the way u want too:

beautiful nadir! now where do I get one?

Check crutchfield.com... to tell u the truth, they were the only one that sold a decent one for the lowest price! i think its a 15" flex arm for 20 bucks. That's the best deal u can probably find IMHO.

can you tell me the model #? I can't find anything like that

thanks, I might take you up on that offer sometime :P

What have other people done? I'm assuming that other people have done this, so what have you guys used for mounting not in-dash?
