Step 3Fit the The Anchor
The PVC Tee is the anchor of the whole contraption. You will wedge it into the chosen mysterious space in your dashboard. Sheet "craft foam" is perfect as it is a dense foam that will compress slightly and allow you to achieve a snug fit. If you don't have the self adhesive variety you can use regular sheet foam but you'll need some double stick tape or foam adhesive.
Measure the length of the arms of your TEE and cut strips of craft foam to that width.
I needed 6 total strips 3/4" wide cut off the 11" side of the craft foam to achieve a snug fit.
Peel off the backing paper and wrap an equal number of strips around each of the opposite ends of the PVC TEE (adhesive side to the PVC). I used 3 strips per side. Press the foam firmly as you go to get a nice clean finish.
It will look like a funky little cannon when you're done.
