  • Mounting a Carcomm iPhone Cradle

    G'day

    I have been running Carcomm cradles for a few years now, after pulling it out of the sold car and wishing to mount it in the 150 Prado. There isn't many options I can see, for a permanent fit. Anyone out there have any photos or suggestions as to where they have mounted it?

    Mine is mounted on a custom bracket between the air vents and the instrument panel, their is a photo in my build up, the custom bracket is fixed permanently to dash and when I sell it I will just leave it there.

          Hi Racer,

          I put one in my GXL a couple of months ago and am happy with the placement. The bracket has some double sided tape to hold it in place. For the first week or so I had it in place without the tape so I could slide it up and down for the best position. Here are a couple of pics of where I have it.


          This was before I used the double sided tape and is higher than I eventually mounted it.


          You have to mount it high enough to clear the cup holder cover.

          It is as solid as a rock and I love it that there are no cables getting in the way. Occasionally I knock it slightly with my knee, but so rarely it is not a problem. You can change the angle of display once it is mounted.

            Thanks for that, unfortunately I have already installed my Icom UHF there.....

            Where did you get the bracket to fit?

                I have a bury system 9 cradle, I like it mounted up high so u don't have to take your eyes away from the road at all.

                    How did you go about mounting the the Bury cradle, did you drill holes?
