Nice photos. Nice install. It looks really good with the factory interior color scheme.

what was used to cut into the panel?
Thanks for the compliments. I started out with a 1/8" drill bit. Then I used stepped drill bits called a 'unibit' (first drills to 1/2", second drills from 1/2" to 1").

The 10-24 stainless steel hardware was purchased at Ace Hardware. I would have used metric, but they don't carry metric ny-lock nuts in the size I needed so I went with the 10-24 size. The 10-24 fit the existing holes in the ram mount base better than the 6mm metric stuff.
