Finally got my OFT mounted

Ive been contemplating ways to mount my Tablet FOREVER, and finally had a weird dream about how to mount it last night

I use a Rockform case for my iPhone 5s. It has a badass mounting system on the back and even a magnet. It is an impressive case. I few months ago, I accidentally dropped it in a large spill pan full of 5w-30. I pulled it out quick enough and the phone was fine, but the felt backing on the inside of the case turned into mush.

So I bought another case and have had this other one lying around. This pictures show the rest. I cut the case with an air cutting wheel(not the best choice as it melts the plastic) and then use some 3M Double sided tape to adhere it to the back of the OFT. I then ran the cable under the steering column and into the ob2 port.

It doesn't interfere with the turn signal and I use the same mounting spot with my phone turned sideways for gps and its perfectly visible in the drivers seat.

Heres a link for the case: http://www.rokform.com/iphone5-cases/

I realize $40 is a little steep for a mounting solution, but if you sign up for their email list, I regularly get 20% off coupons and occasionally 40%
