Our vehicle has no convenient place to attach an amateur radio transceiver, or even the control head for it. It does have a console panel with a very smooth surface that will permit use of suction cups. While not ideal, they will hold for the duration of a typical trip, and depending on where they are placed, a quick press will reseat them.
With that in mind, I made this mounting base that will accept the control head of my FTM-100 and permit mounting it at a convenient location on the console.
I have enclosed two .stl versions - one with very short legs that sit low, and another with taller legs. I have also included the Fusion file for the main mounting baseplate if anyone wants to modify it and create their own version.
The feet are designed to use a 5mm threaded stud. Plan to tap the threads in the hole.
I found suction cups on Amazon with a diameter of 30mm and 5mm studs, but use any cup diameter that fits your panel.
Print it upright on its feet. Support is not required. I recommend PETG or other material that can withstand the heat of the interior of the vehicle.
