The ball mount can barely be removed, anyone knows how to take it off?

if you have a bench vise put the nut in the vise and use a large cresent or pipe wrench at the base of the ball.then turn counter clockwise.

Are you talking about the ball itself? Yes, its on there...tight. Its supposed to be, hence the reason for the size of the shank and nut. You'll need the appropriate sized socket in 1/2 or 3/4" drive and a long breaker bar to fit it. A large Crescent wrench will fit the ball at its base to hold it while the nut is loosened.

I just tested mine and the silver ball at the top does unscrew. Might yours be on to tight or maybe a defect?

I use a flathead screwdriver and pry it off. There are 3 little pieces that hold it in. I found the first time that I need to be more aggressive than I thought was safe, but it came off with no damage. Just work the screwdriver around the outside metal ring and you'll get it off.

Yes you can remove the ball joint where the extension was connected. The ball joint was screwed by the inner hexagon shape size T25 (Torx Hexagon Wrench).

Can't remove the ball, however you can remove the post at anytime. Works very well I like it

Unfortunately not. That's one of the things I wish too. It's riveted to the clamp. The top portion of the clamp unscrews out of the ball joint, but the bottom portion, which includes the ball, is permanently attached.

The ball is is loosened or locked by turning the larger knob on the pedestal. Be gentle you don't have to throttle or muscle it. Counter-clockwise on the knob to loosen, clockwise to tighten.The pedestal itself can be loosened/tightened for rotation with the smaller knob that is attached to the pedestalComment: This is a simple task.Read the instructions if these efforts can not be figured out upon taking out of the box . Take 5 minutes to tinker with it before you mount your camera get angry and start throwing things; something I do not recommend :). Merry Christmas!

Dremmel/grind down the top cover retaining pin, so that you can remove it completely. You can get a new pin later if you want to go back.

Dear back of player challenged,I had the same problem with mine. I handed it to my boyfriend and he got it off in less than 2 seconds. Here is how you do it. Hold the player in your right hand with your thumb running along the length of the back of the player, use your left hand to pinch the sides of the player near the headphone port for support. Press down slightly and slide your thumb toward the USB port. I promise it will come off. Now that I can do it, it is cool and I have taken it off about 10 times for the heck of it. Good luck!Tiff

I'm not sure. Never tried to take it off, but the ballhead works really well.

you can remove the dust cover, with the mount attached. Not used it yet ,seems solid.

I've had the ball/socket come loose after rotating from landscape to portrait a number of times. I've been able to re-tighten it on the back side of the mount with a flathead screwdriver, coin, or standard house key. I did have to take it out of the CD player, as it is much easier to be facing the back side than try to mess with it in a limited space. Hope this helps.

Remove the round plastic covers with flathead screwdriver and unscrew the 2 screws. It will come off easy

Use the tab on the end of the mount to flex the mount a little - that makes the little latch disengage from the notch in the back of your gps. Then slide off.

You have to unscrew the top half of the dome from the base. There are three parts: the base, domed top and the camera body. The domed top may be a little hard to unscrew.

There is a giant screw on the bottom with a nut and there is no way to take it off. I would have liked to see a removable screw with doublesided tape or something of the like.
