This could be cool if I could figure out a good way of mounting it (once I get my hybrid),

I think you just found the HOLY GRAIL for the Ford Maverick. Everybody has been talking about the Homelink Mirror and swapping them out. This may be the secret. (Info @Delzona )

I'm thinking it could be mounted it in the cubby or center console with Velcro tape

I would probably put it into the sunglass cubby door above the rear view mirror. There’s enough space on the front dash above and next to the screen to put glasses.

We need to get one of our 3D folks to make us a black plastic box that'll adhere in the cubby with an opening to pop this in to...

Let me know if you find one with a suction cup small enough to fit in the hole. Oh yeah, looking for a GPS holder that will fit in there too.
You wouldn't want a suction cup one, you would want to use double-adhesive tape variety, like this style:

THANKS. The second one may fit in the hole better. The first appears to be too wide. Couldn't find the measurements with a quick look.

Appreciate you posting these.

I don't know much about HomeLink and almost jumped on the bandwagon with this one, but being battery powered, it is always active! If your car is outside anybody could activate it if they break into your Maverick. Then they'd have access to your house too. I do like the idea....if it was a hard-wired version that would shut off when your vehicle did. Same reason I don't leave my current remotes in the car and take them inside with me.

I would mount it in the dash just like a real switch, NOT just lay it in the cubby like a remote or anything.
I know the Homelink in my Lexus is always active, so what is the difference? I can leave the keys in the house and open the car door and hit the button on the mirror and it opens or closes the garage door.

You could use it to secure smaller diameter pvc pipe/wood trim ends that are run through the back window slider. To keep them from flopping around as you drive.
