This mount is specific to holding TooLite 550 shovel with a single bolt. Other shovels cannot be mounted to this holder.
You can mount shovels at 2 points with different holders but to hold it at its center of balance in a single point, that will have to be a custom mount -- as this is
Longer shovels will hit the roof and not hold in the single mounting spot

Bone (sold separately) is made from stainless steel an attahes with included round mounts
Shovel holder is also made of stainless steel
Both can be left unpainted as in the photo (for the past 2 years)
