Grab Bar RAM Mount
A friend of mine purchase a metal grab bar that had a RAM mount ball for attaching phone/ tablet. I loved the setup, but didnt want a metal grab bar nor did I want to pay for one. Brainstormed with a coworker and came up with something Im currently testing. The final product will have everything reverse threaded so the weight of the arm and device will always be tightening the peice. So far I have been happy with it. My question is, do you guys think this is something that would sell? if so, how much? Only looking to see the adapter and ball. Give me your input!

I have been happy with mine, but I'm more interested in fabricating something like that myself rather than buying one. I do like Ram mounts though. Not sure what something like that would actually cost to make, once you factor in the cost of the Ram mount portion the only real part is the bolt to attach, but I am sure some would be willing to purchase a pre made assembly for the right price.

We actually started off fabbing an adapter bolt, but was afraid the proprietary threads in the dash could snap off from the extra torque of an arm being on it. This is stupid simple to make, so maybe I am over thinking it by trying to sell it.
