Just got it. Went in fast, but do not loose the fastener. The dealership does not have any. I flipped the nav antenna and my sirius works much better.

I like mine. It was easy to install and is nice to have a spot to put sunglasses or whatever.

I love mine. Super easy to install, and holds my cell phone and glasses perfectly. I bought mine from 4wd for 24.99. About half of what others were selling it for (why, I don't know). It wasn't even on sale.

Mine works great: sunglasses, cell phone, etc.. Installs easy, and the slightly larger than original gaps along the sides are forgotten about in due time (however, if I just mentioned them, I guess I haven't forgotten about them?!?! )

I installed mine yesterday. Yes! Do not lose the clips! I would also use superglue gel around the clip. I had to take the dash apart to retrieve one

Yeah I want one of these also. My budy has one in his TJ and nit is a handy little buger. Must find the best deal on one of these.

odd; my cell phone doesn't affect the compass at all.

I also have a Maestro, I tried velcro'ing it to the Daystar, but it wobbles when I touch it, so I got a mount from "the mount guys" (google them) for about $20 and glued it to the top of the Daystar. I got the bendy-mount, it vibrates a bit on rough roads, so if I had to do it again, I'd go one step upstream and get one of the more solid mounts.
