Who is using vectors dash mount

The review on the Vector spare tire mount reminded me of this product.

I called Vector on Friday to ask if they had any updates on the full length dash mount for 2011-current JK's. Previously they had announced that they were working on a design to use some mounts under the dash, the same ones used in this proof of concept. I had talked to them a while back and it didn't feel real promising that it would actually be released. I was headed out on a trip though and thought I'd ask if they had any new info. I was told that they would be adding the new version to their website for EJS and that it ought to be up about April 15th or so.

When I talked to them earlier in the year I was told that they would not recommend hanging a tablet from the current short version. I hope that this new one makes it to market and that it will work for what I want it to do (navigation with a Nexus 7 primarily, also ham radio detail.) The guy I talked to on Friday said the price would be the same as the earlier years model at $129.99. I'm looking forward to this and just thought I'd share the info.

I am getting the short one, but im using the padholdr for my tablet because I want it mounted low and out of my windshield view. I will use the edock to mount my camera, Inreach and other doodads.

Not the Vdock (which I'll likely get as well at some point) - but received this in the mail yesterday. Mounted the nexus ram mount to it (empty)... didn't move at all while driving to work. The old setup I had, it would vibrate a move just a tad (even when empty).

Quite happy with it.

Here are some pictures. I use it for my CB and Baofeng. Planning to add a windows tablet to it. I missed out on the long version.. but it looks like it will hold.

I was going to use the pad holdr, but after too many reports of bouncing and weak mounts im going with the E -dock LONG and some ram mounts.

I picked up a used one this week. Just waiting for it to arrive (~2 weeks). However I won't be using it for my tablet as I have the CMM Grab Bar w/ RAM Mount.
