MEALAM Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU Phone Mount & Dash Tray for 2011–2017, Metal Rod Support & 360° Adjustable Holder

Sturdy, vehicle-specific phone mount and dash storage tray for 2011–2017 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU that replaces fragile plastic mounts with a metal support rod and adjustable arm for secure in-car device use.

This MEALAM kit combines a reinforced metal support rod, extension arm, and a dash-mounted storage tray with a 360° adjustable phone holder designed specifically for 2-door and 4-door Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU models from 2011 through 2017. It swaps the factory’s weak plastic fittings for more durable metal components, adds a non-slip tray surface for small items, and offers flexible mounting positions so phones and action cameras stay put during daily driving or off-road adventures.

How does this mount improve stability compared to stock trays?

The MEALAM system replaces fragile plastic support pieces with a high-hardness metal rod and upgraded phone stand to minimize wobble and breakage. The design anchors to the dash using the original screw point plus double-sided tape for a firmer hold.

• Metal support rod reduces flex and prevents snapping under load.
• Longer fixing screw secures the tray to the dash opening.
• Anti-slip textured tray mat keeps small items and devices stable.

What phones and devices will this mount hold safely?

The holder accepts most phones with widths from about 4 to 7 inches and is also compatible with many action or POV cameras, making it versatile for navigation, recording, and hands-free use. Two interchangeable mounting heads offer options for different device geometries.

• Phone width compatibility: approximately 4–7 inches.
• Works with many sports/POV cameras and compact devices.
• Two separate phone head types included for varied grips.

How difficult is installation and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward and uses a stepwise process: fit the metal support and extension rods, remove the original dash screw, seat the tray with double-sided tape, then tighten the replacement screw and place the rubber mat. Basic tools like a screwdriver are required, and the kit uses existing dash hardware so drilling isn’t necessary.

• Stepwise install: support rod, extension, remove original screw, set tray.
• Use included double-sided tape and longer screw to secure the tray.
• No drilling; one or two hand tools (screwdriver) recommended.

Will this survive off-road use and keep devices protected?

Yes — the kit is designed with a high-side base and wear-resistant texture to resist slipping during rough driving. The more rigid metal construction and non-slip tray mat help prevent sliding and reduce vibration transfer compared with standard plastic mounts.

• High-side tray lip and textured mat keep items from shifting.
• Metal rod and upgraded mount better resist vibration and shock.
• Holds devices securely during off-road maneuvers without damage.

Who is this for: Jeep owners of 2011–2017 Wrangler JK/JKU (2-door and 4-door Unlimited models including Sport, Sahara, Freedom, and Rubicon) who want a stronger, more reliable phone mount and small-item tray than the factory parts provide. It's ideal for drivers who use GPS or record with phones or action cameras, and for anyone seeking a durable dash storage solution that endures everyday commuting and off-road conditions.
