How to Install the Dash Anchor in Rivian R1T and R1S

Installation

  • A person uses a screwdriver to install a black plastic phone holder onto a car dashboard near a touch screen display.

    Step 1

    Loosen the screw to release the anchor. It does not need to be fully removed.

  • A close-up of a car dashboard showing two digital screens displaying information. A gear selector lever is visible between the screens.

    Step 2

    On either side of the screen, slide the anchor into the channel until the bump on the anchor is positioned into the second notch behind the screen on the driver's side or the first notch behind the screen on the passenger's side.

    The anchor should be tight and stable even without the screw tightened.

    Important! If the anchor is not clicking into place, the anchor is either not inserted far enough behind the screen to reach the notch or the two depth adjustment screws need to be loosened so that the bump will make contact with the back of the screen.

    Look behind the screen to determine if the bump is in place in the notch. See the Depth Adjustment Instructions tab ☝️ to adjust if needed.

  • Person using a tool to adjust or install a mounting device between two car screens.

    Step 3

    Tighten the screw to expand the anchor and secure it in place.

    Note: If the anchor does not feel secure, go back to Step 1 and review the Important! section of Step 2. Contact support if you need help!

  • A person adjusts a rearview mirror mounted on a vehicles dashboard near a touchscreen display.

    Step 4

    Install your favorite mounts, arms, or other accessories as directed by their instructions.

    For the 17mm phone mount pictured, loosen the collar, press the phone mount onto the ball mount, and tighten the collar while holding the phone mount in the desired position.

    Important! Some magnetic phone mounts include an adhesive metal ring that can be attached to devices that don't natively work with magnetic mounts. Install the ring on your device or remove it from the mount so that it doesn't affect the strength of the phone connection to the mount.

  • A black camera lens attachment with a small grip and a separate adhesive ring on a plain background.

    Step 5 (Optional)

    Note: EveryAmp magnet mounts include an adhesive metal ring that can be installed on a device or case that is not compatible with MagSafe mounts.

    Important! Do not use the metal ring between the mount and a MagSafe device or it will significantly reduce the strength of the magnets!

Depth Adjustment Instructions

  • Two identical black plastic firearm charging handles with ball-end levers and angular designs, shown from side and bottom views.

    Step 1

    If you’re 100% sure that the bump on the anchor is properly positioned in the notch behind the screen, but the anchor still feels loose, the depth of the anchor can be adjusted to accommodate a larger than typical space between the screen and dash.

    Important! This is rarely needed, so take care not to damage the screen with excessive adjustment or force.

  • Person interacting with a touchscreen interface inside a vehicle, using a specialized tool.

    Step 2

    If it’s installed, loosen the screw and remove the anchor from the dash.

  • Close-up of a black 3D-printed object with a ball-shaped handle and a small screwdriver inserted into it. The text EVERY and a partially visible word are imprinted on the object.

    Step 3

    Loosen (lefty loosey) both of the depth adjustment screws a half turn to increase the depth by 0.4mm.

  • Close-up of a vehicles interior showing two screens and a manual gear shift knob in a parked position.

    Step 4

    Reinstall and check the fit by looking behind the screen to make sure the bump on the anchor is reaching either the second notch on driver's side or the first notch on passenger's side behind the screen.

    Repeat Steps 2-4 as needed to fine tune the fit.
