• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

RS iPhone ram mount

Here's an IPhone 4 ram mount I made for my 2012 RS. I wanted something removable and easy to use. I used a short arm mount and utilized the existing vent holes in the dash, drilling just one 1/8" hole to line up the top screw. I used two ss fender washers in back to add stability to the mount. Here are a few instal photos below. Tell me what you think!

Thats pretty cool WTG ! What did you use for the actual phone holder and how secure is the phone in it?
I'm using the same holder (bigger size) for the ZOOM and never had a problem. Just remove the phone at the first signs of rain.
 
I purchased a Buybits mount kit through Amazon that had the holder and wiring kit that works very well. You might eat to look at it.
 
That's a nicely executed modification. Should give secure mounting with easy access. For what it's worth, and I'm not suggesting you do this my I touch survived a trip through the washer. Not a recommended cleaning method:yikes::yikes:
 
I forgot to remove my iPhone when it started to rain :banghead:.. It is now in apple heaven:roflblack:

I used this mount - It is designed for the Otterbox Commuter Case on the Iphone 4.
It is very secure. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SlipGrip-RAM-HOL-4-IPhone-4-Using-OtterBox-Commuter-C-/400191446903



I also ran a 12v power cord up from the trunk outlet and will
secure it on the little metal tab that rests on the rubber shroud (under the handlebars)

Then I can just pop it out and plug it in. I'll post more photos when I get that part wrapped up
and weatherproofed (since the cord will always be there)

Thanks.
