I think a 5 on the install. I also think the cover plate should be included with the mount to give it a finished look. I will be ordering one soon, it looks great.
Ive had the 3TPAM sitting on my counter for a few weeks... after seeing the video im ready to do the install. Great job as always. I agree with a 5 for the instal difficulty level.
I shouldn't have said 5 until I started the install myself lol .... the two bracket screws in the back are a bitch to line up. Oh and the bracket on the right side sat to hight and i had to bore out the mounting hole just a tad so the radio frame would clip back in place. all in all its defiantly worth it and a fairly straight forward mod to instal. And again great video keep them coming!
Just about everything is over priced at tacoma beast. I bought a different one from a different supplier it didn't have the power plug on it and it sits flush on the top. I got the plate and 2 phone mounts and a GPS mount for about 200.00 dollars. I like it it holds my phone perfectly.
Excellent video!!! Installed mine with a buddy no problem that’s to your video. We had to modify things a bit due to the fact that the cigarette lighter cable was super short not allowing us much to work with.
Don't have a Tacoma just yet. Saving up and trading in my Focus sometime after the 2020's come out. Appreciate all your videos, gives me some good areas to start modifying.
Good video but man you were driving me crazy with the drilling. Surprised you didn’t ruin a hole. You definitely need to use a drill bit that’s 4-6x smaller then use the correct bit to avoid messing up.
Outstanding video, best I've seen for this type of install. I'm definitely going with this product as, while a bit on the pricy side, it seems to offer the best mounting solutions for our needs. Thanks again!
Dude, That is the biggest ratchet I’ve ever seen used to remove a 10mm bolt. 😂 If your plan is to work on and mod your own vehicle you should invest some $ in the right tools. Like the video though. That mount seems priced a bit high to me for what it is. It does look good. Great job.
Do you recommend any specific mounts? I need a mount for my iPhone and one for my iPad. But I’m not sure where to look for the accessory mounts themselves to attach to this.
I would agree with your estimate 5-6. With apple car play you wouldn't need the phone in your way as well for the price the backing plate should be include imho.
So by reading the comments this thing is $200, wtf? $200 for just 2 usb A ports??????? Why not just fill up the empty slots that you have with usb A ports??
Great example of how to do a DYI UA-cam video.
No stupid gimmick crap to watch, just straight forward info.

Imo they should include the cover plate. Without just looks unfinished. Especially for the price. $200+ is a bit pricey
Absolutely agree.. This is too funny, that it's not included, that's a reason for me too not buy this

@@colinandersen1347 what's the one you found I'm interested.
Does anyone know where to get the screws to hold onto the balls? No one sent them
It’s total BS… lol
They need one of those DIY Shops in Miami.
Excellent video!!! Installed mine with a buddy no problem that’s to your video. We had to modify things a bit due to the fact that the cigarette lighter cable was super short not allowing us much to work with.
Axe-esories... just messing with ya bro! Great video!!
Looks dope, cover plate should've be included for the first price. Without it, it doesn't look finished.
I'm with the others in that the back cover should come with it. 8 out of a 10 on the install. PS. very much enjoy your videos. Keep them coming!
Thanks for another good vid. Consider a center punch for marking holes instead of wiggling a screwdriver in the hole. Or even a sharpie
We’ll look into that 🤙
@@tacomabeast indeed... like when I say "I will give that the attention it deserves" 🙂
Don't have a Tacoma just yet. Saving up and trading in my Focus sometime after the 2020's come out.

@@tacomabeast Will do man!
Just picked up some gear from your site, just a few beanies and a lanyard.
Looks good and nice install 9 out of 10 😉
But that the back cover is not included, is wrealy a shame!
Yo! Just got mine today. Thanks for the video! Hopefully I get it done tonight or this weekend.
Good video but man you were driving me crazy with the drilling. Surprised you didn’t ruin a hole. You definitely need to use a drill bit that’s 4-6x smaller then use the correct bit to avoid messing up.
Dope but bad thing is that not everyone own a 3rd generation Tacoma 🥺
Best video installation so far for tpam.

That back cover plate should be included.... who wouldnt install that.

Too funny

We have some options available on our website for iPhone mounts, as far as IPad I believe they sell adaptable ones online 🤙
3of 10... Great items
Does the USB port that you add work for apple carplay? or is it just for power.
Just for power 🤙
@@tacomabeast Thanks man. I ended up ordering the track mount from you instead of this one. I think its cleaner
Anyone got a part number for replacement head unit dash piece? Trying to have a replacement incase I want to take out the dash mount
Look sweet, I'm going to try one out. Nice to have phone and inreach handy
Accssessorieeesss🤭🤗🤗🤪😜
Good install video
is that the stock head unit?
Why no include the back plates? And also we have buy other accessories to mount our phone, lol expensive.
I would love to work on my truck like this but am scared shitless about screwing it up. I have no experience in wiring. That’s what I’m most afraid of
5.5 on the interior install 😁👍
Can anyone please tell me if we have to buy the phone holder and what not separate ? I’m in Canada and the company won’t answer for me to ask .
It would be better if the USB ports on the mount worked with the Android Auto/Apple Carplay
I would agree with your estimate 5-6. With apple car play you wouldn't need the phone in your way as well for the price the backing plate should be include imho.
@tacoma beast you buying a 2020 taco?
Where can I get the accessories for the mount?
I want to tap into a constant source
I like it but way over priced!! Rather get my mountain hatch tailgate! lol
Both overpriced. Mountain hatch is doing meth to be charging that much for a piece of plastic!
What song did you guys use???
That center USB port looks hideous sticking out. There are flush mount units just like this for $125 that look alot cleaner
Ok 👍
those mounts stick out too far i use a magnet mount the phone sits in the space in the bezel perfect for me those mounts are $5 on amazon
great mod but that price point is steep
Better to get power direct from battery, just add a fuse, then can charge with truck off
Accessories bro. Accessories. I think you're saying accessooories.
cool
does anyone know where I can get a tailgate for my Tacoma? some assholes stoled mine last night
What wire
Sooo uhhh what about 2nd gen‽‽
So by reading the comments this thing is $200, wtf? $200 for just 2 usb A ports??????? Why not just fill up the empty slots that you have with usb A ports??
2/10 on the difficulty of the install. Then again, I build motors and develop software.
