🙌 GIVEAWAY: Hood Insulation Pad -- Giving back to the community that helped us improve!

[SeptuagenarianSasquatch]

Well, thank you very much! I will now be able to raise my hood proudly in the most prestigious of Ford dealers and other select repair shops!

I could certainly use a bit of good luck. With my type of luck, I'd win Powerball--five minutes before the Rapture.

(You Bible-savvy members will get it. If you don't--please read up on that!)

I was just cleaning my office and found a cellphone mount that is small enough to fit a GoPro 4 without a case (2.36"). I'd say this mount can go as narrow as 2". Is your Garmin smaller than that?

Hey,
Here's the dash cam I have (Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/1223369/).
Here are the specs:
https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/1223369/#specs
So, 5.21 cm wide, which equates to about 2.05 inches (a shred over 2").
What's the brand name/model of your mount? Might be cheaper for me to buy one local here than ship from Utah to NJ.

Are you talking about the accessory rail for the dash? Like this:

If so, I have one of those you can have for the cost of shipping. You'll just want some new double-sided foam tape that is used to secure the two ends to the dash. I ended up going with a shorter version because I realized I've really only ever had one thing mounted at a time:

Who makes or sells that three-screw accessory mount? Looks great. If I understand you right, the center screws into the Bronco's dash accessory 1/4" bolt hole, and you recommend reinforcing it the ends with double-face foam tape. Or should I used a longer threaded post (an inch + a fraction) to to through it down to the dash?

1) Who makes it? A link would be appreciated.
2) Obviously, @jerzeybronco201 has first call on it. If he declines, I'd be interested if you just want to get rid of it--for shipping and any other consideration that's appropriate.

Thanks!

Send me a PM so I don’t forget this, as I’m in Moab now. I can look up the info when I get home. The long rail is made of aluminum. It came with a couple of small pieces of double-sided foam tape to help anchor down the ends because there is no place for the ends to attach to the dash. The middle does screw into the dash. When I bought it, the shorter version didn’t exist and I thought I would have multiple items up there, but I’ve only ever had a GoPro, so I ended up getting the short version when I saw it. I figure if someone else can use the long version, as least it’s not just sitting doing nothing.

It's all yours, bud.

It's all yours, bud.

You're very kind, but I've decided to pass. The smaller one, with three 1/4 inch mounts, should be sufficient. All I need is for a phone arm and a GoPro. If nobody expresses interest from this thread, perhaps you can post it on Sellers Market, bottom of the threads.

And thanks anyway!

The hood heat pad arrived, safe and sound. Can't wait to install it.

And thanks!
