Yesssss these are what I have. LOVE them. The ONLY down side is that wireless charging doesn’t work with the metal plate. But, I attached my plate to the case and not the phone. Sticks stronger, and take the case off to wireless charge. Good video. Love your setup.
Nice video. I really wish I had more things to stick onto my 4Runner dash. I really enjoy these simple off the shelf solutions instead of some overbuilt, very expensive “Gotta Have It” options.
Great advice on mounting locations. So many people also mount them next to where their airbags would deploy in an accident, which would send things flying at blazing fast speeds and potentially injuring them when otherwise they wouldn't be hurt. Good advice for sure. Just ran across your channel because of this video; fellow Arkansan here!
The 'stache is gone! I love magnetic mounts and agree with you that they are a great all around option. You can also get some cheap ones that aren't so great, but these look fantastic. You're making me question my whole setup now, :D. Great video as always man!
Haha thanks Fletch! I’ve always loved how simple these are. Most of them suck, but these hold pretty well. Yes, the stache is no more! I feel like a part of me has died 😂
@@ArkansasOffroad I had magnetic mounts for a while, but then got some of those that wirelessly charge your device while you drive and I like those, but they're a pain to get the phone in and out of and they aren't the toughest. If Scosche would come out with magnetic ones that charge, then they'd have a real winner, :D.
I use the same mount in my GTi and I use the tip from a rubber glove in the ball socket to keep the swivel from moving. The gorilla tape should fix my issue from the Vegas heat killing my factory adhesive 🙏
Yay! I been waiting for a awesome new video from you. Thankyou I can't wait to watch this one. How are y'all all doing? Yall all take care and be safe.
I agree 100%. I hate drilling and love the magnets. A problem I found is in mounting the magnets. The vinyl portion of the dash does not have a very good adhesion to its subsurface. The weight of the phone or tablet will start to separate the vinyl from its base. Mount the magnets onto something solid and there will be no problems. Great video.
Any issues with heat and adhesive? Tried it all including that gorilla double sided tape and nothing works in the Louisiana heat. Use a cheap vent style magnet for phone and have a ram mount for trail use.
@@Karma.seoul416 Actually yes, but I've found that one of those windshield reflective heat shield things helps a ton. I just barely crack the windows and put that up and haven't had any issues. If it's super hot, I take the GMRS mic off and lay it in the cupholder just in case.
Buddy you are so helpful.. i just didn't know whether magnet mounts would work but your customising gave me the confidence. Thanks for putting it out there ! God Bless !
I have the same magnets in my TJ and XJ. Love them and they are super strong! I take them out of the mount and use the magnet in my tent for my sons tablet for a movie. Lol Also device 4 times and very 25 times!
I didnt have alot of luck with the magnet mounts. Went to an offroad park in Kentucky in our JK and everytime we hit anything rough my phone was facing down. Glad they work for you though!
Love your videos bro. Went to Dixon Ford rd in Newton County last weekend, my big ass heavy Chevy Suburban couldn't make it....had to turn that big momma around.
I've tried using the scosche before and just not strong enough for my tablet but then again I do have a 10" tablet... Maybe that's the issue. I ended up using the expedition essential track mount and have ram magnets because they are bigger and cover more surface area. I'll be doing a walk around of my vehicle in the future and I'll show my set up. Great video... Keep it up!
Thanks! It’s the Midland MXT275. The gray handheld is a Midland GXT1000. My GMRS has been amazing. Would never go back to a CB. Love it and it’s crystal clear. The handheld was great for a while but I keep having issues with it draining a freshly charged battery. It comes and goes.
Nice! I use a RAM X-grip for my phone in my JK Wrangler and yes it's a bit cumbersome and a pain if you only have one free hand. Definitely going to look at these magnet mounts! That would be perfect for my car too (a 2015 Camaro SS) that I need a phone mount for. Thanks for the info.
Some great ideas. Been looking for a secure mount for my phone and hesitant about Ram X. These look exactly like what I've been searching for. P.S. love the patches and stickers.
that is a good one, between Toyota and Jeep which one you use it most and for what purpose? if possible share a link or make the link, thanks for your time and effort!
I’m from the UK and live in Portugal only got a softroader. Looking at jk,s prices here crazy 2009 plates costing 28000 euros. One day perhaps. One question what bug spray do you use when you go off-road or don’t they bother you ?
In hyave these in australia also there are strong as fuck and actually work! never falls off. The only time it may fall off if its on for a year or its parked in sun for too long and over the months it will slowly melt and loose its grip. other then that it is best option for s trong mount and clean look
Great video. But I have a question about your 4X4. Are you more confident (reliability wise) after moving to a Toyota product? I am in the research phase and are considering Toyota vs Jeep. I like the Wrangler but at the price point I am limited to, I feel Toyota’s (4runners, GX470, LC etc.) are a more reliable choice. From what I’ve read, Jeeps in the $10k to $15k range are “worn out” and need expensive repairs to keep them running. Thanks.
Yes, definitely more confident moving to a Toyota. My Jeep was amazing, but it was becoming super unreliable on and off the trail. Id generally say the more stock the vehicle, the more reliable as far as buying used.

Glad I saw this as I'm looking for mounting options now for the Tacoma I just got. I just want 2, 1 for my phone and 1 for my Ipad. I have the 12.9 pro though so I'm wondering if it will hold that? Won't be doing off-road cause I don't have 4wd.
Have you had good luck off road? I tried running it off road and even my phone popped off if I hit any sort of rut BUT I still love these for lighter things.
Yes I have! Literally never popped my phone or tablet off. These are the Magic Mount Pros. Maybe yours was an earlier version? Plus running no case and having the magnet directly touch the other magnet is even stronger.
Hey man your videos are awesome - thank you for posting this content! I was wondering what you used under the phone mount base to level it off since on the tacoma where you mount it over the vent to get the phone our far enough you need to stick it a bit forward and it leaves a space open under the mount in the rear of it. For your tablet it looks like you stuck something under it. THanks man !
Hey thanks man! I actually just found a little piece of plastic that I cut to shape to fill the gap. That made it flush with the plastic bezel of the dash to where the mount stuck on both evenly.
Have you had any problems with the tape damaging your interior sash etc? I bought a truck that has a nice circle missing from the dash from a previous mount
First 3 people to comment how many times I say "very" and "devices" wins a free sticker! 😂 Anyway, hope this video helps you guys with your setup. Thanks!
nice setup. How did you stick the mount to the dashboard. My hilux dashboard cant stick well the double sided tape. After sometimes the mount fell off. The weather in brunei is hot all year round. Need your advice. thanks
I had to use a different adhesive. I’ve found that the industrial grade 3M VHB is amazing. I heat it up with a heat gun to get the tape and surface warm and then apply.
Just a quick question. Do you know if the magnet attached to the back of the IPhone will affect the wireless charger? Really like your videos. Keep up the great work.
Yes. The magnet actually sits inside the mount face. But the box should also include 3 different sized thin metal plates that you stick to the back of your phone or tablet. And yes I went on Amazon and bought more plates so I could attach them to additional devices. Very affordable.
Love that you are not just slinging the most complicated and expensive Gucci hardware.
Yesssss these are what I have. LOVE them. The ONLY down side is that wireless charging doesn’t work with the metal plate. But, I attached my plate to the case and not the phone. Sticks stronger, and take the case off to wireless charge.

Indeed the best mount brand, they actually have a version which is bigger and won’t require you to place the magnet on the back of your iPhone.
clever mount for the Midland hand held

Thanks for the vid. Never heard of this company so for such a lower price point in comparison it’s worth a shot. Got the 3 in 1 mount on its way.

I just love this channel
Thanks Lahian!! 🍻

Very cool. You just solved a question I've been trying to solve!
Can’t wait until the weather cools down so I can see some more awesome overlanding vids!

Thanks for the idea. Btw, velcro strip is my choice for my phone. Cheap and also variable.
I GOT 4 TODAY , THANKS AGAIN .
Excellent video. I’ve been looking for a mounting system I don’t have to drill into the dash. I’m going to give this a try! Thanks buddy!
Yessir!
Sold me on magnet mounts!
Nice!
Love your videos bro. Went to Dixon Ford rd in Newton County last weekend, my big ass heavy Chevy Suburban couldn't make it....had to turn that big momma around.
Haha that’s a big rig! I appreciate it.
@@ArkansasOffroad I kept an eye out for you, but, I was looking for a jeep. Forgot you got the Tacoma. You should come to Oklahoma and do a video.
You convinced me thank you.
Really like this setup! Great price too. Think I will go this route in my rig. Thanks for the video!
Good way and clean!
Nice vid...just ordered 2. Thanks for the demo.
So helpful just ordered two! Thanks!
Sticking the magnet to the back of the case works for phones :) Good vid, yes, even a year later :)
Great info!! New ride is dope!! Love Jeeps annnnnd Toyota 4Runners/Tacomas!!!! Outdoors makes everyone united...
Thank you!!
Thanks for the review of the mounts, i just ordered me a couple.

Nice!! I wanna see it. I will say I had an older scosche mount and it wasn’t strong enough. The pro version I have are a bit newer.
Big fan of magnetic mounts as well 👍👍
Good info...thanks
Thanks for the vid. Exactly what i was looking for. Do you think using 2x mounts would mean it'd hold a larger tablet?
DefinitelY!
Simple, clean, and easy, just what I’ve been looking for! Can I ask what midland radio was that and how has it been for you? Thank you
Thanks! It’s the Midland MXT275. The gray handheld is a Midland GXT1000. My GMRS has been amazing. Would never go back to a CB. Love it and it’s crystal clear. The handheld was great for a while but I keep having issues with it draining a freshly charged battery. It comes and goes.
Arkansas Offroad I just got the MXT400 but saw the one you use and would’ve went with that cause of the nice compact size, easier to hide.
I did this with my iPad Pro 11in. I used the gorilla tape but I had to use the two of the mounts for it
Niiice. Yeah that's a big ipad haha.
Killer content as always. You deserve way more views/subs. Can't wait to see what's to come and to see the Tacoma on the trails.
Thank you so much man! I can’t wait to get on the trail.
Emp proof your truck. It connects under the hood near the battery easy set up
Great review and video dude 😎
How well does the gorilla adhesive hold up in the heat. I live in Arizona, but I lived in Arkansas for a few years and I know it can get pretty hot.
What do you use for the back of your mic?
Those phone mounts with the arms are so unnecessary. This is clean
Agreed!
I like 👍😎Thanks.

How do the magnets hold up when you rock climb? Does all the rattling shake off your devices?

No more quaranstache!
Have you ever tried to remove the mount after using gorilla tape?
The stache is dead. It lived a good life.
Yeah I have. It still comes up pretty good. A hair dryer helps.

Does the mount fall off sitting in the sun? I would think the sun would cause the tape to heat up and fail.

No prob! You totally can, I just didn't because I don't think it'd stick to the leather of my case very good.

is your center dash metal? if so where did you get it?

A little random piece of plastic I found and shaved down.

It will not work with wireless charging. Wish it did. Thanks!

Do the magnets for the tablet and / or phone come with the mount? Can you get extra magnets for the devices?
Yes. The magnet actually sits inside the mount face. But the box should also include 3 different sized thin metal plates that you stick to the back of your phone or tablet. And yes I went on Amazon and bought more plates so I could attach them to additional devices. Very affordable.
