Mounting platform for top of dash

[Reverse]

Posting this for anyone who'd like to mount something on top of the dash.

Installed the Goat Mount in my 2020. Had and have these in our 4th gen truck and it's a high quality piece. Use it to mount suction cup phone holder in 4th gen to run navigation. Plan to run radar detector on it in our 2020. Keeps power supply clear so I can simply plug the detector in there. Installs by using two existing screws.

Find them here: Bayou Goat Mounts

Bayou Goat appears to be defunct. Anybody know of a similar mount available from somewhere else?

Thank you! I had seen their stuff before, but it has been a little bit and I could not remember the name.

I think my bulletpoint mount is the first design, they look more adjustable now with where you can mount the ball on the plate.

I made my own plate and stuck RAM mounts to it.

Now I have bunch of junk mounted to it.

You mentioned a goat mount! I happen to have one I used in my 2016 ram.

Will that fit/work in a 5th Gen?

When i get home I'll pull the rubber mat on my 2021 and see if the holes line up!

It would work with a little modification, it's slightly to narrow due to the depth of the holes where the screws go. Some spacers to make the holes more shallow and it would line up perfectly.

Thanks for checking. No worries.

I haven't even received my radar detector yet. I'm going to wait and try it using the mount options that come with it before I decide what to do next.

I need to figure out if I want it up high, just under the rear view mirror, or down low just above the dash.
