Post This looks cool! Anyone feeling handy?

So I could swear I saw someone on this forum had a similar mount, only it seemed like it was attached to the grab bar, not underneath the grab bar, like this dude, but still! It is uber cool and I want to be able to do something similar. Basically I want a mount for my ipod/phone/etc. This would be so useful for road trips when I want to use gps and want to avoid having to hold the gps or try to stick it in a cup holder. I found this where someone else did this nifty thing:

Forum.ArchosFans.com - View topic - Archos 605 Car Mount

It doesn't have to be this same mount, but if there was like a gentle vise grip that would grab onto the grab bar and then had a similar type of platform that could hold any small electronic screen (like an ipod or gps) that would be perfect. I'm sure someone here has figured it out, right?

I had something like that a number of years ago. Hubby tried to jbweld it into my bud vase. Worked for a little bit with my old Mp3 player but the the jbweld failed. The mount otherwise was alright.
