In Car Holder for Apexi PFC Commander

[N777CK T]

Just dropped the baby off to get the new ECU fitted! Can\'t wait to get it back already lol...

Just thought though... where can i get one of those holders so that the commander can mount on the dash/centre console!?!?

Get yourself on ebay, I have one on there at the moment

Good sale there, Martin! :Thumbs-up I gave up thoughts of bidding on that one when it got more expensive than buying a brand new one!

[najiru]

eh... how much are they new? Thought they went for about £50?

In actual fact, it probably weighs in about the same with postage and that, but I\'ll give Lil Steve a free plug anyway! When I looked at Martins auction it was at just under £40 with a few hours to go, so I was expecting it to reach a good £50 or so. Maybe I\'m tight, but its one of my own personal rules to never buy something off eBay for the same price or more than I could buy it anywhere else, otherwise surely that defeats the object of it? Not even from a top bloke like Martin!

Thank you Nik, bit supprised a bit of plastic can fetch so much money. Wish I had the mould for it!

[Nik da Greek]

I was kinda thinking of some sorta bodge with a cheapy Halfrauds phone holder for my commander but was worried it might look a bit pikey. When I saw yours, I was watching it hopefully all the time it was a few quid, then it went all fubar. Gutted now! Like you say, lot of money for a bit of placcy, even one with a nice R-Magic decal! :Giggle

Sorry to upset anybody, but I just bought one secondhand off a chap on here for £20 delivered...

However, mine doesn\'t have that R-Magic sticker or any sign that it ever did, despite looking untouched, so I wonder if someone has got a mould somewhere!?

*EDIT*: Just saw this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290171332797&ssPageName=MERCOSI_VI_ROSI_PR4_PCN_BIX&refitem=130252829485&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&refwidgettype=osi_widget&_trksid=p284.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSI%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D4%26ps%3D42

Looks like the sticker comes separately, hence why mine is missing, so is probably original after all. I did laugh at that listing - £37 for the holder, £32 postage!

[Nik da Greek]

The sticker comes separtely, so maybe the guy never used it? He probably flogged it separately for another £20.......


Hate you, by the way :Laugh. Very upset now

[Nik da Greek]

ooops! guess you were editing whilst I was posting then. Maybe I should edit my post so it looks like I spelled "separately" correctly? Nah, this wouldn\'t make sense then for future generations! :Giggle

The sticker comes separately, btw! :rollin

[lockwood77]

Separately you say? Well I never...

[allstaruk]

I won mine on ebay for 7 quid, result.

Gary at rotary art was gonna get a mould made up but didn\'t bother in the end

[najiru]

Aww was hoping you were going to reply with "..you can get then at x for a fiver a piece delivered.." oh well, might just slap some gaffer tape round it and stick it to the window:bandit (then again I still aint got my pfc yet lol)

[Nik da Greek]

Super-strong sticky backed velcro has kept mine honest up till now, but the trouble with that is the only bit of dash you can really stick it to (the passenger side of the heater control/stereo panel) slopes away from you, so its hard to read the commander on the move. All I have to work with comes from the peak value recall feature! I may just have to go with furkling a cheap phone holder into shape then......
