PFC Commander Holder for FC3S

We decided it was time to develop a Commander holder for the FC so here it is:

It installs inside the edge of the glovebox. It does not hinder or obstruct the use of the door or any of the heater controls.

Too funny. I know on club member fab'd one of these up himself a few years ago and I was just thinking tonight that no one has made one (if possible) that uses the AC panel mounting locations.

Don't know how I feel about tapping 2 screws even in that location (maybe DS tape?) but this is a nice, inexpensive piece that is great for PFC users! Thanks Banzai!

It includes two self tapping screws. DS tape will not work, it just will not be strong enough to secure the commander and holder. The nice part about the hardware mounting inside the glovebox is that it is not seen.

Installation at the A/C panel is not feasable.

Here is another install on a customer's car

Well if I'm drilling into my car, inside the glove box is the one place to do it! Nice piece!

That's pretty funny. We both had the same idea. My PFC came with a bracket for an FD and I cut it down, bent it, drilled two holes and mounted it in the same place. Works extremely well and doesn't interfere with the fitment or opening of the glove box. Very nice

Wish this was around a couple years ago. I used the old Gotham holder for an FD. It works fine but the install isn't as clean.
