Mounts:

Upgrade or replace your original factory mount. These mounts to correct the fast and touchy motion of the factory "lazy Susan" azimuth assembly with Teflon and select laminate, for buttery motion with sure starts and stops. Constructed with 18mm birch plywood provides strength, and light weight rugged endurance, instead of the OEM pressed/particle board that can wick moisture degrading structural integrity.

This is a standardized design, no changes are allowed. We will ask to confirm simple dimensions before you order.
