Mob Armor Rad Mount Magnetic Radio Holder Kit

I was worried initially about trusting a magnet with holding my radio. I decided to do some tests by attaching the mount to a steel plate and shake it around... All I can say is you don't need to worry about your radio falling off. With the black rubber boot, it took ALL of my strength to attempt to fling it off and it only did so once (This cannot be compared to a natural movement). If you are really paranoid however, you can take off the rubber boot. I don't care who you are, without the boot, that mount isn't coming off... I use it in my truck and I am never worried about it popping off. On top of this, my buddy and I tested it on his UTV and I felt comfortable with it the whole time. As for the actual mount, it's designed to fit a few varieties of radios (check product description). Compatible radios will actually clip into the mount for a secure fit. With my experience, the only way to slide the radio off once it's clipped in is to focus on taking it off the mount (again, cannot be compared to a naturally occurring movement). In other words, with the extreme magnets and secure mount fit, your radio is completely safe. You could stick the mount magnet directly on your vehicle, however, if it is not a completely flat surface, I would recommend using the provided mounting disc for the most secure mounting. The manual says you can remove the magnet and hard mount to the dash. This sounds great for someone with a custom vehicle, however, my situation does not warrant that. There are two rubber pads to choose from to give the proper spacing for different radio models. These pads will give the proper grip and support to keep your radio from rattling, which is really nice. As for quality, this mount FEELS tough. I have never been a fan of plastics, especially on devices that are meant to be durable. The build is extremely stout, as it's made of metal. You can feel how substantial it really is; it feels like a first-class mount. If you're looking for a high-grade, tough, strong, user friendly radio mount, I highly recommend this one.

item is good though and strony magnet !! but this item lack of compatibility for some of the newer models of BAOFENG UV16 the clip doesnt fit well from the back with 100% even when i use the sticker

I work in the crane industry and it’s exactly what I needed for keeping the radio tidy, the mic or full body easily accessible and in a better position to hear.

The rubber pad adhesive pulled off and couldn’t use them. The first disk it came with wouldn’t stick to anything and fell off right away. Bought a two pack so I could have a backer in each vehicle for my radio and so far those have worked.

This thing is built tough! Easy to install and looks great.

I had high hopes for this mount but, unfortunately, my hopes were dashed within a couple of weeks of use. This was to be a mount for my Wouxon KG-935G in my Ford F150. I carefully cleaned the area just to the left of the driver side AC vent using rubbing alcohol. I attached the adhesive mount to that location after the alcohol dried and let it sit for close to 30 hours before placing the HT radio on the mount. I had an 18" pigtail from my coax antenna attached to the radio. The mount stayed attached for about a week and then fell off while driving one day. Fortunately, the pigtail kept the radio from falling under the brake or gas pedals. I cleaned the mount area again, reattached the adhesive pad, and let it sit for another 24 hours before putting any weight on it. On our trip to the Low Country of SC along I-40 and I-26, the mount continued to fail and drop the radio. This isn't safe in high speed driving. I finally gave up and have removed the mount and will be looking for other solutions. UPDATE: I contacted customer service about the matter and found them to be very responsive. Within 8 hours, they shipped a "fix it" Kit that they indicate will resolve my issues. I haven't received it yet so don't know what comprises the kit. I'll post an update after receiving the kit and utilizing it. Kudos for good customer service. UPDATE 10/31/22: My fixit kit arrived today. The kit includes two additional adhesive disks: 1 labeled VHB, which the instructions note are for specific plastics that off-gas and is rated for 90 lbs of adhesive strength. The second disk is for padded dashes or soft leather. There are a total of 4 wipes to prep the surface. Again, the manufacturers recommend 24 hours prior to adding weight. On a related note, I used teh MOB Armor mount without an adhesive pad on the metal downtube of my Polaris Ranger side-by-side while cutting wood this weekend. I had my Baofeng UV5r handheld radio with extended whip antenna attached. The mount remained attached to the downtube through heavy woods and rough roads. Now, if the adhesive will just work in my F150, I'll be one happy consumer. Again, excellent customer service. I'll update one final time when I see how well the adhesive works this time.

The magnetic is strong. I attached it to my steel basket located near my roof panels in my bronco and it’s been a week and it didn’t move. I haven’t tried it off road yet but the test will be next month when I take on some trails.

Nice product

Not cheap. But work well. The magnet has just the right strength. I use it for my handheld now that I don’t have a mobile in my vehicle anymore

Magnet is strong, however item doesn't fet my radio clip.
