Karlito - Not just yet - I have 5 people who have been waiting patiently, but I've hit problem after problem.

5 are going out (finally) today. Each person getting one will get an email directly from me with the tracking number (in the next 45 minutes)

If you ordered from the site, then you're getting a v1 (with the exception of Jason G.). Everyone else is getting a v2 pre-production unit.

Thanks everyone for your patience - this process has been quite involved due to some more broad issues creating a production quality part like this.

Ok - If you had an order in, or, if your are one of the people I invited to test the v2, you should have an email with your tracking number.

I will be releasing the v2 mount next week for sales.

Thanks everyone for your patience.

I stumbled upon this thread because I have been searching for a 3D printed solution for wireless charging for my 718s. It appears the 718 / 991s have the same dimensions for the smoker ashtray (https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/9X2ASHTRAY.html). @brockbr is it too late to see if I can help beta test v2 and see if it works in 718s?

Are there any options for a non-ashtray model?

I am making one now. I had to locate a non-ashtray car before I could start. Coming soon.

By special request... here's what the GT4 version looks like for the 718. I've got a few testers now and this one will be out soon....

@brockbr do you have a page that people order from? Could I please order one for the ashtray?

Are you making any with GTS labeling?

Which kind of power supply are you using? Is there a thin one from amazon that works well?

@brockbr-
Just a friendly reminder about an option for those of us who prefer a mount on driver's left side in sight line.
Thanks

Would Apple CarPlay still work with MagSafe and a separate cable going in from the armrest?

Does your adapter have a channel to feed in the cable from the arm rest to enable wired CarPlay?

Doesn't this cradle plug directly into the cig opening in the center console?

No - This version does not. I haven't found a clean way (not that I'm not trying) to get the cable up and rearward to the console.

This cover allows you to plug into power for charging.

On a personal note, I use a CarPlay dongle to make my car wireless carplay. This one specifically:

i was hoping it would work but it doesn’t. That said I do use wireless CarPlay but was hoping I’d use the tethered CarPlay and other tethered car options.
anyway, wireless CarPlay and this setup is great.

i think a “911” should be added to all future models. Y’a?
