I mount my phone with the magnetic mount
Mounting questions... It's not what you think @Tripod

Let me cut one into for ya. I happen to have one

Man... I rather he ship me a few rather than cut into and waste one, but I understand the pursuit of science and information...
Now I'm thinking of going with a good grip suction mount that @jorgebri60 recommended (it's already in my Amazon cart) and using the RAM mounts for a Bluetooth speaker mounted to the windshield bracket. Could easily remove and place in glove box. Save me the hassle of a stereo/speaker install...
BTW, no dealers or vendors to assist here with ordering factory parts? Still wanting the factory camera mount...

In Maggie Valley I will have all boxes of mounts and arms. If someone wants to try one out just let me know. I am going to order some of the 1" RAM balls that screw into the threads on the windshield post. I already had the 1/4" thread balls so I tapped not post holes and used mine. But when I order I will get the metric threaded studs so that you won't have to tap the threads. Can someone confirm that it's a 6mm thread that the post has?
Yes it is a 6 mm. I just took a 1/4-20 brass screw cut the head off of it and cut the threads down on one end then took 6 mm die nut and rethreaded. Now I have 1/4-20 on one end of the stud and 6 mm on the other

@FunCycle - me thinks you are damn handy to have around laying around the house

Thanks all! Finally went with RAM mounts and the suction mount @jorgebri60 suggested... Everything is coming through Amazon and now I'm just waiting.
Also, was able to get the factory camera mount through 2wheelpros.com (saved about $10 plus)!

Just an update for anyone thinking what else could be mounted to the windshield bracket using RAM mounts... A speaker! Perfect for those base SSs not looking to spend too much on audio (total cost, including speaker that can be used in other settings, $150)...

Also have a magnetic mount. You can put the metal piece in your case or on it. With it in the case didn't work well fell off easily. However with it mounted on the outside of my case it's awesome. You can almost throw it at the mount and it will stick. Can use my phone with 1 finger without it moving at all. Sunction cup works really well and it can go almost anywhere.
