Abstract
A mount for insertion into a hollow space of a hollow structure such as a vehicular pillar includes an expandable foam substrate having a at least one support panel secured thereto via a tack. The so-formed assembly is disposed within the hollow space via a mount component which includes a base having a pair of spaced apart mounting pieces which extend from the base, the assembly being disposed between the mount pieces. The assembly is tacked to the mount component by having a tack wire project through the support panel, the foam substrate and the mounting piece. The mount is secured to the interior wall of the hollow space through either a clip, a magnet, a suction disc or the like.
