" ... The insert covers the hole, looks like Jeep put it there at the factory. ... Very happy with this purchase, wish it was my first attempt at a dash mount, would have saved alot of headaches over the crappy ones I purchased at my local auto parts chain store. ... "
" ... I found a SlipGrip 17MM Holder For For HTC One M9 Using Otterbox Defender Case bracket that was specific to my phone and case that uses the the 17mm ball mount and it works great with this base. ... "

" ... But after a couple of time, the side rub grips broke off so my cell kept falling off. ... "
" ... Will not work with a thick backed case or wallet case ... "
" ... So if this is meant to act as a tripod, whyyyy would it have the female end on it? ... Because the genius engineer at Rugged Ridge said, "You know what, let me screw (pun intended) with everyone & put the ball joint on the mount itself and then let the front camera mount have the female end so they'll have a really hard time finding things to mount on this!" ... "
" ... That was until I discovered how cheap the plastic is that the adjustment screw is holding the phone mount. ... "
" ... It hard to tighten to be secure all plastic ... "
" ... The rubber grip to hold my phone peeled off after 4 months of low usage. ... "
" ... Worked well until the plastic tightening ring snapped. ... "
" ... junk don't buy broke first day out ... "
