Die 4 ekstra skroewe is daar as als begin los rattle op die mount. Dan gebruik jy die vier extra skroewe om dit weer aanmekaar te sit as jy nie die losgerattlede skroewe in jou bakkie kan kry nie

Go check your invoice and wallet................
What you will find is that RAM screwed you with the price of the mount and now they are just giving the screws back. :twisted: :twisted:

But seriously now they are for the fixed mount, I got extras with mine too. :thumbup:

George I don't wanna be funny here but I think they sold you the wrong stuff. My computer's RAM just plugs in, there are no screws and it is not nearly as big as the thing you show in your pic.

If that suction cup fails, you drill 4 holes in the windscreen with a glass drillbit and secure it tightly.
Ps: Position it out of the way of the wiperblades or use countersunk screws and put some sealer on the thread to prevent leaks.

Don’t through away those screws. You bought the screws and they gave you the ram set for free.
