ICS Fab Dash Mount

Anyone have experience with one? When adding in tax & shipping it runs about $115

Fit - Finish - Functionality?

Are there similar products from other vendors?

5th Gen 4Runner Dash Mount
– ICS FAB






Thanks for any information you can share.

The Expedition Essentials T4RPAM is also worth checking out: Toyota 4 Runner 5th Gen Powered Accessory Mount with Wiring Cover – Expedition Essentials

It's more expensive than the ICS and is currently out of stock until 4/30, but I think it's a cleaner looking mount and it includes a 4.8amp charger.

I considered both and will recieve the expedition essentials bracket tomorrow. The ics fab unit looks ok i guess but by the time you add a power outlet its about what and what on pricing. I think the expedition essential set up looks better and stronger.

I have the ICS Fab mount and absolutely love it. It’s sturdy and looks like it came that way from the dealership. I also like being able to see the clock. I have just the ram mount phone holder on there now but will eventually get an iPad holder and midland radio to throw up there. No regrets but it’s great that you’re exploring all options.

All that work and you lose the factory clock. It's even worst if you have the AMD aka Accessory Meter Display. I ended up getting the ICS fab dash mount instead.

I ordered the 5th Gen Model last Wednesday but other than their email robot confirming the order I've not heard a peep out of ICS

Remove your head unit
Position the ICS tray on the dash where you want it
Mark the four holes in the dash
Drill the four holes
Use long machine screws, nylocks and fender washers
Mount the ICS unit, don’t overtighten the nuts
Reinstall your head unit
