It was just some bits & pieces from past cars owned, I believe the little CF "arm" was made by Exotek and used to raise the transmission on a 22 buggy / SC truck. Something you could easily make yourself. The mount post was from a Schumacher SV buggy. With the driver figure, I made the hole just big enough to barely fit the post through so it's a tight fit. With the body clip in place, it stays put pretty well. Easy to rotate vs. full removal also, if you just need to get at some wiring quickly, ect.
