Where do you put your phone?

Nowhere cool, just the passenger seat.

In the armrest & turned off. I don't want to be bothered with it when I'm cruising.

Not sure about your passenger seat, but my passenger seat is ridiculously cool!

Shirt pocket, and there it stays.
Mine is in a fold-over case, so it wouldn't work with the windshield mount.

I picked up this Qi mount on Amazon a couple of weeks ago. I wish it was a little more robust in quality but it's not bad. It holds and charges my s8+.
I've cut off the base and still shaping it a bit more to better fit between the console and bolster panel. Here is where I'm at so far if I can get pictures to show up.

Looks good. I really like the location. Nice job. Hope you don't mind me copying your setup.

Thanks, and copy away. Glad it was helpful.

I rigged one of those magnetic holders. It's rubber mounted and very adjustable. It's never in the way of shifting or the passenger.

Cup holder.

i'm a big fan of the non-tech nismo cubby

keep my essentials in there

Usually in my pocket.

On long road trips, I set it at a right angle in a leather phone holder I had for an old cell phone, and I rest it between the e-brake and the rise in the center console. Not suitable for spirited driving, but fine for highways.

Lol. Funny you say this i have a war with it when its in the door.
