When towing the 5th wheel, the rear view mirror is mostly useless (unless checking on the kids/pets in the back seat). I have been looking for a mount that would allow me to easily place the Furrion display on my rear view mirror - apparently none exist, so I decided to design and 3D print one myself. So far this has worked out great (can easily remove it and it stays in place unlike the suction cup mount that would detach itself from my windshield at the worst time.

I have had several people ask me to print them the same mount (I know it works on Ford trucks with the thicker rear view mirrors - have not tested it on Chevy or Dodge yet) ...

Nicely done! Agree on the rear view mirror being a "check on the back seat area" only use too, LOL!

Any chance of getting the 3D print file so I can try it out o my RAM 2500? email is [email protected]
 
Sure - I made the STL files are available at https://rvterp.etsy.com/

I will also have 3D printed version available on the site once we return from our current camping trip. I have had many people asking for either the design files or a printed mount.
