Jeep JL mount for SDS100

[gatsat]

I am looking for a solid mount for an SDS100 in my Jeep JL.

I have an overhead molle mount that spans from the windshield to the roll-bar, directly over the center console. I have DC power and antenna coax cables run to the molle panel that I use for various radios. I would like a mount for this location that holds the SDS100 secure. I am fine of the display faces straight down or if the mount articulates, just so long as the scanner does not pop out of the mount during turbulence.

Thanks in advance!

Think it may be hard to find something. When I had molle in the JK I used Velcro straps around a small radio so maybe try the same ? That should hold it secure. Mine was 2" velcro that screwed into a small plate behind the molle.

Was your molle made of fabric or a solid material? Mine is metal, cut in a molle pattern. I should have clarified that in my original post.

Reconsider metal mounts overhead. I've seen a few fatal accidents and plenty of head trauma accident when the skull gets thrown into unyielding brackets, mounts, and gear. It can also happen off road when traversing rough terrain.

If you go with Lido gear, I personally use it in my JK and recommend them.

That is some food for thought! Where are your mounts located in your JK? Are they permanent mounts? Thanks

Mine was a metal molle panel. Basically aluminum full of 1"x1" holes I guess. Only used it for one handheld. Other radios used the Panavise Dash mount that goes behind radio and magnetic mic to my APX radio HHCH.

Panavise makes one to go behind the radio - https://www.panavise.com/pdf_indash/75122-621.pdf

Personally in my JT I used the ball mount on the grab handle from CMM offroad - Gladiator JT Grab Bar Ball Mount
