Just had email from Brodit

There will be no ProClip for the fgt86frsbrz ever

Can't be done because of the way the dash is built apparently

thought it was something to do with tuning....how wrong can i have been

I did email Brodit about this a while ago and they stuck it on their list of cars to investigate. Seems this is the unfortunate outcome.

I'll still be using my Brodit holder, but i'll have to fabricate something custom to mount to the car.

That is a shame, would be good to have a custom designed mount. Most mounts don't look OEM and I still don't understand why manufacturers don't design an OEM mount that fits the car and looks like it should be there.

EDIT: I have realised, it is so you buy their sat nav no doubt.

I don't think it's going to be too tricky making a mount to go to the left of the stereo.

I looked at using the one I had from my Celica to see if any of the joins were suitable but I couldn't find anything similar on the '86 dash

I can confirm the RHD version of the Brodit holder will have part number #654812 and should be on their website today.

 

[ICantAffordAnLFA]

lhd, ok, and a bit of an eyesore compared with some of their clips, but you can see where the fit will be - perfect for iphone copilot!!

Do they give you spare stickers in case it needs to be removed?

 

[jimgreen83]

Thanks for posting, I have just ordered from the US stockist (www.proclipusa.com). I will update when they tell me the estimated delivery time. It is not cheap at just over 80 euros but the best option so far. I want to get it trimmed to match the interior - does anyone now a good upholsterer in Essex or Kent?

I have a good guy in Chelmsford - he's likely to be doing a couple of bits for me on my car. Can pass on his details?

Not from my previous experience, however any old double-sized tape should do the job - perhaps something used to stick rear-view mirrors on with.

That would be great

I have reordered from dsl, not sure why they are not listed on the brodit site as they list nemesis but a quick google search would have helped
