Here's the thread I made with the setup I went with. Quadlock Case/Mount + Akro Designs Insert. I have had zero issues with the MAG mount but they do offer a twist lock version that easily allows one handed operation.
I ended up going with an Afterplug cable. May try some other cables but this seems to do the trick. Wish it was slightly shorter but it does the job and looks clean!
Nice looks good man! I plan on getting a bulletpoint system down the road. No real need for one now but I think they look nice and I don’t use that cubby for anything. You should get their cable management kit. Comes with clips for the arm and sticky channels for the dash. Pair that with a...
It's actually very simple to install. Here's a video from Akro himself installing one in his maverick. Different looking cubby insert but still the same concept.
Yeah looking at his site and I do not see the option I purchased anymore. I ordered the " Ford Maverick Cubby Mount | Phone Mounting & USB Charging" option. I did have some issues with the shipping. Label was created the day after I ordered but the tracking never updated. Was told he had...
Vent mounts are always a bit loose from my experience but I have had zero issues with this one. Especially with the insert which has fixed "vents" to grab onto. Was able to crank it down pretty damn hard and there is absolutely ZERO movement. As for the mag stuff. I have seen some bad...
He walks you through it in this video. I ended up popping the dash tray off and removing the infotainment screen since I couldn’t get a good angle with the short drill bit I had. The AC duct is just behind the cubby so have to be somewhat careful. Drilling one hole and running a wire down to...
I like the looks and coverage this offers. Does the texture make it hard to wipe clean? Not looking for something like skateboard griptape but also don't want anything smooth.
Hey guys. I know I'm a bit late to the party but I recently finished installing my Akro Designs USB Cubby Insert. Coupled that with my QuadLock Vent Mount with the upgraded MAG Wireless Charging Head. Very clean and simple installation. I am a cable management nut so being able to hide all...
Well that's unfortunate. Good to know though! Will have to figure out a way to reinforce that mounting point or just scrap the idea altogether. Thanks for the info!
+1 on the QuadLock stuff! I just finished installing an Akro Designs (@akro) cubby insert with USB. Combined that with the Quadlock Vent Mount and upgraded it to a MAG Wireless Charging Head. Couldn't be happier with the outcome. I build PCs and do some gaming on the side as a hobby so cable...
Thanks for the input on the Proclip! I'm assuming you mean the little clamp-like part that grabs onto the cubby and not the bolt itself correct? I ended up buying a USB cubby insert from Akro Designs and use my Quad Lock vent mount + mag charger for my phone. Be interested to see if one of...
I have been looking into options for my ipad mini and Pro 11" for a little while. Best thing I could find was the Bulletpoint Mounting Solutions RubiGrid stuff. Does require drilling but doesn't seem to be too intrusive. Easy to cover with liners or one of those aftermarket trays. Looks...
Hey guys. Searched the forum and some other places online and couldn't find anyone with the Retrax IX tonneau cover. I am interested in seeing some pictures as well as some measurements of the space the canister actually takes up. RetraxONE MX canister says 11"x11". I like the IX as I don't...
I have a little USB light in both of the USB-A slots in my Lariat Lux. Front goes off instantly but the rear takes a bit of time. Never sat and waited but checked back 30 minutes later and it was off. Not sure if its the same for the outlet or not.
