I use https://www.niteize.com/collection/m...ccessories.asp
My phone points right at me and easily unlocks with face recognition.
I use the vent clip in our vehicles, and a permanent ballon my tractor.

The 67d stuff looks really nice. Love the CF arms!
Big fan of 67 designs. My FIL is an off-roader and reco'd them. The carbon fiber is very nice indeed, very sharp.

Builtright is bulletproof, awesome kit...all their stuff.

Very nice! Where'd you source the ports for CarPlay?

I don’t have a pic of it on my phone but I took apart the center console, removed the 2 usb plug, reattached it to the harness loose inside the console, and ran a USB cable up.

For the broader setup here’s a thread with more details (though again no pics of the usb move)

Can we get power for a gps or radar detector down under the tray somehow to feed to the builtright base and item installed?

if you have a center console it’s pretty easy. There are 12v cigarette lighter plugs (power ports) in the console. Pop the cover off the drink holder area. Drill a hole in the forward wall of the console that enters the area under the drink holder cover. I have a 4port usb charger run up to the area under the radio for two phone chargers and a dash cam. You can change the timeout on the 12v plugs to 4 hours with FORScan too.
