I'll check with cavell and see if he wants to do a redesign on it. The problem is that you'll have to drill a hole at the back of the holder and then somehow find a flat surface type bolt in order to put the hood on top of it. Have you mess around with the brightness on your commander?

Damn, thats awesome. I want one. I was checking it out earlier today, and was wandering what it looked like installed. Pretty damn good.

is this steve kahn from gotham??

How do you install the holder in a 94 Rx-7, does anyone have pictuers?

i posted pictures of one installed in a 94 somewhere here on the forum. the 'arm' of the holder isn't hidden by the glove box like in a 93. i ordered a few and found that out when trying to install one. i ended up not using it, it looked tacky IMO.

i do like the fact that you can set the commander in the holder and it won't fall out. i'm trying to come up with someway of combining that aspect with a different kind of mount

Damn, I hope it dosen't look tacky. That was my post on Mako's name. Ill do a search and see if i can find it. I just got mine today.

Was there any problem with the glove compartment (opening, closing, etc.)? If there's going to be a glare.. I'd probably rather not get it.. instead of a hood thing for it.. why not simply re-design the whole thing w/ a slight curve, bend or something.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif but it still looks pretty good. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

The material is .090 aluminum, so it's pretty flexible. And the powder coating won't crack unless you bend it A LOT. The only problem with the hood would be taking the Commander in and out of it, so the hood/cowl couldn't be perm affixed. I take mine out every time I park and put it underneath the passenger mat.



There is a curve already in it, about 15-20 degrees pointed towards the driver's side.



There's no issue with the glove box opening or closing, there's about a 1/4 inch wide opening between the dash and the glove box, and the holder sits in between there so there's no rubbing. On the 94-95 its below the opening, and it doesn't hit either.



A friend of mine has some pictures of it installed in his 94, and I'll try to get them so I can post them up on here.



If enough people really want a cowl over the top to reduce glare, then I could make some. But it wouldn't be cost efficient for me if there'd be a run of only 5-10 or so...



Just an FYI, and if anybody has any Q's, let me know. cavellm@sbcglobal.net Or PM me on rx7forum.com as cavellm as I visit there a lot more than here.

You should come here more often https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Okay, just got my Yahoo photos thingy up and going. Here are tons of pics. Some before they were powder coated so you get a good idea of the exact shape when they're not dark as hell.
