Has anyone seen/tried the RAM/Moose universal GPS/Cell/FRS radio mount? (do a search for RAM-B-120). (Actually, there's 2 different models/designs on mooseutilities.com. rammount.com has many derivations of this mount.

They come with several different mounting systems and swivel in all positions.
I have put one on many of my machines and have never drilled into the ROPS /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I have a RAM mount on one of my motorcycles, and it works extremely well - very happy with it. If you're not using the mounted accessory, all of the mount except the little ball at the bottom comes off with it. Very clean when you're not using the accessory.

TxDon,

I used to clip my phone on the rops hinge, and use a velcro strap through the case hinge to make it more secure, but I never remembered to look to see if I missed any calls, and never heard the phone anyway.

I have some narrow two sided velcro strap I got from a camping place. Hooks on one side and loops on the other. I wrapped it around two of the spokes of the steering wheel, in a way that gave me one cross piece for the phone to clip to. Then I put a second small piece of the same velcro through the case hinge, and after the phone is clipped on, I stick this extra velcro to what is on the steering wheel, for extra security. I've attached a photo.

Works really well. I still don't hear the phone if the engine is running, but it is very easy to notice if I miss a call. I mean the important calls like being called to lunch or dinner! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That little clock, which came from the local dollar store is great too. I stuck a small patch of velcro tape on the wheel spoke, and a second small patch of the velcro on the back of the cheap watch, and...instant office at the tractor seat! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I don't wear a watch, so having the time in front of my nose like that is helpful sometimes... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Bill,

Glad to hear that you didn't need to drill your steering wheel to add those accessories! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I have a pair of these and I can't seem to be able to turn up the volumn on these.

Thanks for the cellphone idea, Henro. I've been using my cupholder, but it's only a matter of time till the phone bounces out, and I have nowhere to keep a drink.
