I don't have it mounted yet, but I'm pretty sure they have picks of them mounted on the website. Cost me $195. Which I was happy to pay for how it came out. I spoke with Brian who was great to deal with.
I'll post picks as soon as I can Below is Brian's info.

I've sent an email to the guys at Carolina Metal Masters through their contact us page but I figured I'd ask here too. Do the bolts for the custom grab bar fit the stock grab bar? Does anyone here know if the ram mount compatible bolt is sold separately?
Oh, I guess it would help to know what stock I have. 2013 Wrangler Sport.

If you have a place for the bolt with the ram ball, you might try getting a real ram mount ball. I have a couple of these on my motorcycle and I love them. If I could find a bolt to replace in my Jeep, I would go with the Ram Mount. One of the advantages they appear to have over the Carolina Metal Masters bolt is that the Ram Mount bolts are made of a hard rubber rather than metal. The rubber acts like a shock absorber for the fine vibrations that come from driving on the road.

The reply from Carolina Metal Masters:
Thank you for the inquiry. We do not make a ball bolt that fits the stock grab bar. We had originally tried doing it this way but the factory grab bar, being made of plastic, is just not rigid enough to hold an iPad/tablet/phone and not have it vibrate while driving. This lead us to what we are offering, a solid and rigid mount that will perform flawlessly.
