Hello, about to attempt to install a RAM Tough-track mount to the dash. Any advice? I ask, because as we all no, nothing is quick and easy on a landy haha!!! Do I need to remove the dash?

Looks like a load of decent-sized self-tappers would do the trick.

Ok, bought the screws but soon realised that they didn’t really “grip” too well so ended up removing part of the dash to bolt or in. Working great though and really happy with it!!!

What did you do in the finish?
Self tappers?
Nuts and bolts?
I probably would have gone with epoxy and bolts with nylocs as you had pulled the dash out.

Nice and neat if you do not mind me asking, how much just for the tablet fixings and the tough track combined?
How much adjustment is there, if moved more to the center could it be set up to view from the drivers seat for greenlaning?

There’s so many options and setup possibilities. Have a look at http://www.mudstuff.co.uk/products/ram-mounts.html

Looks great, I’m a big fan of their RAM mounts, totally bomb proof.
I have a couple of Tallon mounts in my switch blanks with RAM adaptors in them.

That’s a brilliant idea! Wish I’d seen that before drilling into my dash!Looks great, I’m a big fan of their RAM mounts, totally bomb proof.
