    @Lost Bolt when I placed my order, I didn’t realize the holders I also ordered, don’t come with the correct ball to attach to this mount. Is there anyway you can work with me on pricing, as I would have ordered with the mount.

    this is what I had typed thinking that I screwed up or something, however-

    As I just went back to look up what I did order, and now feel that I did not get all the expected items.

    I ordered 3DE303B5-1B0C-47EB-A917-A360C12861E3.png

    I ordered this expecting to use the 1 extra ball mount to mount my offroam holder, and based on the description of full mounting kits (ball/arm/mount) I was expecting full mounting kits that would work with DMM being purchased in this package.

    I only got the one ball and the two holders, without the parts to mount them.

    775AAAEF-D606-4C71-82F8-7C67A3C78E2E.jpg

    How can we solve this. I’m choosing to contact you this way, as this thread was the sole reason I purchased this set up. Order #21000, placed on Jan 20th, received on Jan 29th.

    thanks

    OP was on the forums Friday evening, but I don't know if any responses were made. Hopefully, he gets on here to get us some answers soon.

    I have heard from the taco garage, they apologized and created a new order for the items I didn’t get. Thanks @Lost Bolt for the group deal.

    That is great news!

    I sent a mail to them back on January 30, 2024 and I’m still waiting for an emailed response. I received a message on the forums a little over a week ago. It has been silence since then. As a consumer, I shouldn’t have to chase down a business and do all of the due diligence on problems for them. Still patiently waiting to get resolution.

    Hey everyone we identified the issue for the missing stuff and fixed it, we know why and to who it may have happened, we will be fixing that today (sending missing parts out).

    You should have your tracking number for the replacements already in your email.

    So far, the mount has been holding up great. I will be using an iPad Pro 11" on the magnetic mount in a few days and will report back on how well it works. My iPhone 12 Pro has had zero movement or issues on both the slim mount and magnetic mount.

    Just completed the install, pretty simple if you follow the video on YouTube and the instructions on here. The 2 balls that I ordered came with screws that weren’t quite long enough. No big deal I was planning on running to the hardware store to get some small button heads to close up some holes. It’s a great product with equal quality in manufacturing! Very pleased the DMM

    edit: Got longer bolts for the balls and some 1/2 #10-32 screws to fill the open holes. Looks great!

    Not sure, almost looks printed or milled. They’re probably printed. That’s how they were shipped from taco garage. They sent me in the Tacoma are standard looking.

    Updates on using an iPad Pro 11" on the mighty magnet mount with extended arm. The iPad didn't move on the magnet for the entire 2-hour trip. The only issue that came up was the weight of the iPad caused the extended arm to lower slightly. This could just be a user error with me not tightening the arm enough. Overall, this mounting kit is pretty amazing and the setup is exactly what I envisioned.
