Does the CS fit in that pod as well? I also have an 09 Platinum and wasn't sure how it would look, but that does look better than the suction cup mount I have.

Edit: So I do see that the CS fits in there, but I wanted to ask...how is the viewing angle on it? It appears to be more straight forward than the angled set up you had with the suction cup.

I'm not going to answer your question exactly, since I don't have your model year truck, but I like the viewing angle that the pod gives my CTS. Bill Cohron, as I recall, said he didn't like it but he's pretty tall (about 6-2, 6-3?) and I suspect it depends on your sitting distance from the wheel and your height. (I'm 5-11.)

I imagine the pod for the 09+ trucks would be similar.

What I can't understand, is why Edge did not redesign the opening of the new pod to exactly fit the CS. It still has the "swelling" on the left side that fits the old Gryphon, and that unit cannot be used in the 09+ trucks.

If it is, then my last post about the fit is, of course wrong. From all the pictures I've seen, the unit itself looked like a pure rectangular shape. Sorry for any confusion!
