    Top 10 Universal Mounting Bases

    When it comes to mounting gear, there’s no such thing as one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re building out your daily driver, dialling in your overland rig, or tricking out your toy hauler, our universal mounting bases are designed to fit just about anything with a surface. From windshields and roll bars to cupholders and dashboards, here are 10 of our most trusted mounting solutions to anchor your devices and lock in your setup.

    1. Universal RubiGrid® Dash Mounts – 2-Ball, 3-Ball & 4-Ball Capacity

    The flagship of our lineup, RubiGrid® transforms any dash – flat or moderately curved—into a precision-fit device cockpit. Choose from 2-, 3-, or 4-ball capacity options, contour the Flex Arms to your dash, and install using either the included nut-and-bolt hardware or self-tapping screws. Load it up with phones, GPS units, action cams, radios – you name it – and own the road with a rock-solid foundation.

    2. Suction Cup

    Looking for a quick, no-fuss way to mount your device to the windshield or window? Our 3.4" suction cup locks onto glass with serious holding power thanks to its patent-pending design. The integrated 20mm ball pairs perfectly with 4cm or 7cm arms and any Bulletpoint device holder (MagSafe, magnetic, XL, wireless charging – take your pick). Pop it on, twist to lock, dial in the angle, and hit the road in seconds.

    3. Adjustable Cupholder Mount

    Turn that empty cupholder into prime real estate for your phone, GPS or other device. Three expandable legs twist outward for a snug, sleeve-free fit in cars, trucks, boats, RVs – even golf carts. Attach any of our mounting arms (Short Arm recommended) to the 20mm ball, drop in your favorite Bulletpoint device holder, and cruise with confidence.

    4. AMPS Ball Mounts

    Need a simple yet highly versatile, heavy-duty mounting option for flat panels or dashboards? Our AMPS Ball Mounts deliver rock-solid stability and multiple installation methods to fit your setup. Both versions sport a machined-metal 20mm ball with friction grooves and a thin rubber vibration isolator on the base.

    • 4-Hole AMPS Ball with 3 Hardware Options: Includes three hardware options – bolts, self-tappers, or well nuts – that let you bolt up to dashes, consoles, or any flat panel (38mm × 38mm AMPS pattern). Ideal for semis, boats, tractors, and more.
    • 4-Hole AMPS Ball with Metal Backing Plate: Have a flat panel or mounting surface with access to the back side? The threaded backing plate sandwiches the panel for a heavy-duty grip – no loose nuts, no wobble.

    5. Fixed-Diameter & Adjustable Bar Clamps

    Whether you’re ripping dunes in a UTV or carving canyons on a street bike, our aluminum bar is perfect for side-by-sides, motorcycles or off-road vehicles – it clamps onto roll cages, harness bars, and handlebars.

    • Fixed-Diameter Clamps: Perfectly sized for Outer Diameter Bars ranging from ½" to 2"—note that these bar clamps are NOT adjustable and are designed to fit specific bar sizes. Choose between the 20mm Ball Mount version or the Nubby Edition with 20mm Connector End.
    • Quick-Adjust Clamps: No tools needed; thumb-tighten onto any 0.5"–2" bar. Choose the 20mm Ball or Nubby Edition. Four rubber insert sets guarantee a dialled-in grip.

    Download and print our bar sizing template so you can accurately measure the diameter of your roll bar.

    6. Flex Mounts

    Slightly curved or uneven dash? No problem. Bend the eight extension tabs to match the surface, peel the industrial-grade 3M VHB™ adhesive, and press to lock. Need extra holding power? Use the included self-tapping screws through the predrilled holes in the adjustable tabs for added security.


    We offer both 20mm ball and 20mm connector options in 2 different sizes depending on your application.

    7. Round Magnetic Bases

    Drop it on any ferromagnetic surface – workbenches, gym equipment, cabinets, lawn tractors – and you’ve got an instant device perch. The 2.6" rubber-coated magnetic puck clings hard without scuffing paint, while the precision-machined base offers durability you can count on.

    Equipped with an integrated 20mm ball mount, it’s fully compatible with our entire ecosystem of mounting arms and device holders – so you can mix and match to build your perfect setup. No tools, no hardware, no hassle. (Note: Will not stick to aluminum or stainless steel.)

    8. MOLLE Panels

    Looking to organize your gear while keeping it within arm’s reach? Our MOLLE Panels are the ultimate modular storage solution for your daily driver, work truck, or off-road rig. Whether you're mounting tech or stashing EDC tools, these panels are built for versatility and tactical utility—with both vehicle-specific or universal panel options available.

    Finish the setup with quick-swap attachments like a 20mm Ball Mount or Nubby Connector End for seamless device integration.

    9. Universal Picatinny-Style Rail Mount

    Mount multiple devices fast with this rugged 7-inch all-aluminum rail system. Designed for flat or slightly curved surfaces, it features flexible contour tabs, industrial-strength VHB™ adhesive, and six optional screw holes for a rock-solid hold. Installation is easy, and once it's in place, you can quickly attach or reposition Picatinny-compatible 20mm ball mounts or accessories in seconds. One 20mm ball mount is included to get you started.

    10. Angled Bolt Mount

    Have an exposed 10mm bolt? You have a solid mounting location with this little accessory! Slip the all-aluminum, 150° angled bracket under the bolt head (hello, ’87-’95 Jeep Wrangler YJ dash bolts) and tighten. The rubberized underside protects paint while the integrated 20mm ball teams up with any Nubby Edition device holders for a clean, low-profile install.
