Well, guys. Do me a favor and use my template and make your own mount instead of buying one from cooltech. I posted this information for you guys to use. Not for a copy company to take and try and make a buck.
Oh well, I guess I don't mind cooltech making millions off my idea.

Man that's the cleanest looking "homebrew" mount I've seen yet -- great job!
I have a mount on order from ProClip (www.proclipusa.com), but since it's brand new for the JK they don't have any pics of the application... we'll see what it looks like when it gets here, wouldn't be surprised if I wind up returning it and going this route.

Yeah, some time after I posted that, I took delivery of the ProClip mount -- I too am not too happy with it. I didn't see any pics before I ordered, and I was hoping for something a little more subtle that would strap to the side of the center console, or the center stack. Instead, it's a fairly large thing that sits on the top of the center stack above the radio. It would probably be okay if I used it constantly, but as it stands, I really just stick my Treo (w/ GPS) in there on long trips, and occasionally my iPod. Thinking of going with something more like this one in the end -- I know CoolTech has started making them for around $20... we'll see. Don't have any pics of the ProClip, but I'll try to snap some soon and I'll post under a separate thread.

Would any of you be willing to make me one? I will pay for it but I don't have the tools or know how as to how to make one of these or anything out of metal. And if you can I need it to hold an ipod if possible.

I would rather buy from the original maker then the company stealing his idea. Thats some thing I would expect from Bill Gates. Also that mounting point looks very small and cheep. I want to be able to hold an Ipod and come June I want it to hold an Iphone instead.

Your choice, if don't have any luck, let me know, I make you one. Unless you consider that stealing too, remember he put the spec's up there for us to use and if some one uses it to make money, more power to him.
