Secure and Flexible Mounting for ID-5100 Series Control Heads

The Icom MBA-2 is a specialized mounting solution designed to maximize the convenience and safety of your mobile amateur radio installation. Engineered exclusively for the detached control head of the ID-5100A and ID-5100E dual-band transceivers, this bracket allows you to position your radio's display at an optimal viewing angle while keeping the main chassis tucked away out of sight. The MBA-2 features a powerful integrated magnetic base, enabling quick, tool-free attachment to any flat metal surface within your vehicle’s cabin, such as the dashboard, console, or internal frame.

Whether you are a temporary user who frequently moves gear between vehicles or a dedicated operator seeking a clean, professional "no-holes" install, the Icom MBA-2 provides the stability required for digital D-STAR and analog operations. It serves as the primary interface between the radio’s remote head and the optional MBF-1 Suction Cup Mounting Base, offering a modular system that adapts to almost any automotive cockpit. As a genuine Icom accessory, it ensures a precision fit and long-term reliability that aftermarket mounts cannot guarantee.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Magnetic Mounting System: Built-in magnets allow for instant, non-permanent attachment to metal surfaces, ideal for rental vehicles or quick-setup environments.
  • Custom-Fit Engineering: Specifically molded for the ID-5100 series remote heads to ensure the unit never slips or vibrates loose during transit.
  • Enhanced Operator Safety: Positions the high-resolution touch screen within your natural line of sight, reducing distractions while driving.
  • Modular Versatility: Designed to mount directly to the Icom MBF-1 suction base (sold separately) for windshield or dashboard glass placement.
  • Compact and Lightweight: Adds minimal bulk to the control head, maintaining the radio's sleek and modern aesthetic.
  • Genuine Icom Accessory: Standard equipment in the ID-5100A Deluxe bundle, now available as a standalone replacement or upgrade part.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this bracket work with the IC-2730A? No. While the IC-2730A is also a dual-band mobile radio, it requires the MBA-5 controller bracket. The MBA-2 is dimensionally specific to the ID-5100 series.

Do I need to drill holes in my car to use this? Not necessarily. If you have a flat metal surface, the magnets will hold the bracket in place. If you wish to mount it to glass or plastic, you should pair the MBA-2 with the MBF-1 suction cup base.

Is the magnetic field safe for the radio display? Yes. Icom has designed the MBA-2 specifically for this radio; the magnets are positioned to provide a secure hold without interfering with the LCD screen or internal circuitry of the control head.

Warranty

1-year manufacturer's warranty.

Pink and purple perfection
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Pink/Purple, Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Pink/Purple
Fits great and perfect colors for my (not so) little. This is her first pair of "tie" shoes so we're still learning, but the laces are a good length for teaching and practicing. She says they're very comfortable too.

My son destroys shoes, same thing happened here.
Size: 5 Big Kid, Color: Black
For some reason my son started doing the duck walk at school and while performing this little trick for his classmates he ripped the rubber that wraps over top the toe. Now, instead of being glued up and into place, its basically sagging down. Thankfully that's the only thing that's gone wrong with these and honestly this sort of wear and tear is not typical. What I would say is that if your child is rough on shoes, I would pass on these. They are very nice, very light weight and are great for school. However, due to the design, they might not best good for some kids. In terms of sizing and comfort, my son wears a 5 and these fit him very well. He has wide feet like his dad, and these don't bother him at all. He's says they're very comfortable and does enjoy wearing them.
