What is an AMPS plate mount?

An AMPS plate is a standardized mounting pattern (typically 4 holes in a rectangular layout) used to securely attach a wide range of devices—like tablet holders, GPS units, radios, or rugged iPad mounts—directly to a flat surface. It’s a universal fit for many mounting accessories.

Where can I install the drill base mount?

You can install it on any flat, solid surface—dashboards, consoles, walls, workstations, or even forklift panels. It’s ideal for fleet vehicles, work trucks, vans, and professional setups where a permanent, ultra-secure hold is needed.

Does it come with screws for installation?

Yes, the Mighty Mount AMPS Plate Mount comes with high-strength mounting screws included. Just make sure the surface is appropriate for drilling before installation.

Is it compatible with other device mounts or brands?

Absolutely. The standard AMPS hole pattern (30mm x 38mm) works with many third-party holders, arms, and adapters—making it highly versatile and compatible with most gear used in mobile setups.

Will drilling damage my vehicle or void warranties?

Drilling is a permanent install method, so be sure to choose your mounting location carefully. For fleet or commercial vehicles, this is common practice. If you're unsure about personal vehicles, we recommend checking with your vehicle manual or a professional installer.
