I went and decided to build my own and I love it. It is not in the way, and I can turn it portrait or landscape. Slight cutting involved and easy.

I put this right on the bottom left of my windshield, doesn't obstruct anything and its really easy to reach to my left :D Worked awesome on my 350 and just as good on my 370z. http://s24.postimg.org/wor5mvw0x/718...VJL_SL1500.jpg

Kuda phone mount. It's pricey for a phone mount but stable.

Do you mount on the windshield or the dash?

Ram mount X-Grip.
Got fed up with cheap Chinese plastic ones breaking or just not working well. The last one I bought didn't even get a chance to mount before it cracked.

This is exactly whyI started this thread. Most of the stuff out there is garbage.

What are you using for a Phone mount?

I mount it on the windshield literally the bottom left corner when you sit in the car. It blocks nothing and tucks in the corner, easy to reach. It took a while to get it in the perfect setting and comfortable but it's been in the same position ever since and i use it everyday. Best bang for the buck in my opinion, you just put your phone in and it clicks into place, and then you can just release it by squeeing the tabs on the sides with one hand. Never need to fiddle with clamps or anything like with previous mounts I've had. Just one hand and go.

I'm a big fan of Waze and liked the position of the magnetic mount on the vent, but they seemed pretty janky. So I took the door cover off my cubby thing and put a N42 magnet in it. The 7 little screws for the door cover are #2 phillips even though they look like #1s. Put a thin metal plate to the inside of my phone case and done. Super simple and it works great. And when the phone isn't there it is super clean. If I was to do it again I would get a N45 magnet (1.75"x1/4") which are about $10 on Amazon. Metal plate was $5 and I had the 3M tape to attach the magnet = $15 and 20 mins.

rkellogg,

That looks great! Could you post a picture of the outside of the cubby without the phone? [[Edit]Never mind--just figured out nothing penetrated the cover--duh.

How long have you been using this now? No issues with the magnet interfering with data cards or anything else with the phone?

i use the breffo mount, but i do not have the nav so i hook it onto the cubby hinge...

BreffoŽ

rkellogg07 05-01-2016 11:43 PM

Fuzzzy, I've had the magnet mount going for about a month now and still loving it. Stays in place over rough roads and quick corners. No magnet interference at all, but I don't use data cards w/ my stereo so can't say about that.

Dear rkellogg07,

I am stealing this idea. Suck it.

Love,

I use the proclip holder. I designed and 3D printed my own bracket because I didn't like how wide the proclip was:
