Happy with my new molle plate from @PowerfulUK Plate is really solid and neat.
One minor snafu with one of the clips at install but no big deal.
Will be great to have somewhere to store all those moles.
Without a clearsight mirror I'm not sure I'd install this. Lower middle bracket needed to be drilled out to get the hex bolt in. Too tight a fit. Lower middle bracket also cracked with the self tapping screw I used. They don't supply one so drill the hole plenty wide in the clip.
@GavinC This is great for the mountain biking that I do and place to stow small gear instead of fumbling in my bag. May I ask how long did it take to ship?

About 5 days. They're always super fast with shipping. Like something from a Jimmy Johns commercial.
Does he 3D print the brackets? He needs to adjust his layering and infill pattern process so it doesn't establish a grain (which is what it looks like in that split)

yes I believe they are 3D printed.
the split was my fault. I used too large a self tapper .
This would definitely not be legal in CA... clearsight or otherwise.
Very cool though!
How so? You not allowed put stuff in your car that obscures the rear window? Seems like so long as your side mirrors/ clearsight camera are working you're all set. I've no idea. Just piqued my interest so I did a bit of googling. I did stay at a Holiday Inn before too.
