Dash-Top Flat Mounting Surface?

I just ordered an F-650 Manual dash plate to mount some switches. I thought about using some unused space for things like GPS, TPMS, Camera/Monitor and then realized that they should be elevated for better reception plus I’m running out of room on the dash plate. I’m not a fan of suction cups.
Anybody build a cool looking/flat shelf on top of your dash for a bunch of monitors?
Thanks ahead of time.

I wonder if you could fab up something using ram mount stuff? The Taco got a Expedition Essentials T3PAM. The Jeep had a dash bar so I fabbed this up

That is pretty cool. Just mount directly to the dash. Better idea than what I had and simpler.
Thanks.
