I've seen the info to do this mod from another forum and decided to do it myself. I gave up on the Arat mount from Germany and went this route instead. The total cost for the HR Global 2 Mount was $20 shipped from ebay.
The mount also came with the dashboard mount.It didn't take that long to make.
Sorry about the quality of the images, it's late and I used my crappy camera phone.
I took out the suction part of my old mount off leaving it with the metal rod. To take out the ball, you will need torx screw driver: T8 & T6. This can be purchased from Home Depot for around $6.
I removed the top part of the HR mount and threaded the original rod to fit in there.
I even used the new mount design with the lip but with the original rod. The rod with the new lip is tilted and not straight. I can take better pictures.
I didn't have problems with drooping, but my mount has been cured from the shakes. No more vibrations and it's firm!
