dashboard phone mounts

Have you seen the proclip mount? They're the least awkward imo, but they're also the most expensive. Luckily they can be had 2nd hand on eBay for ~$30 (phone adapter + mount) if you watch for them.

 

Agreed, I had the proclip dash mount on our C and now on our Prius 2. Couldn't be happier with them. Because we have a big difference in phone sizes, I am using the proclip pillar mount along with the Ram Mount x grip with a 1" ball mount adapter from the proclip to the x grip.

 

ProClip mount is by far the best mount I've used.

Currently have the GPS and IPhone 6s ProClip mounts.

 

That's what I like about the ProClip mount, nice and solid,

 

Another guy on the forums had the same issue, as do I, but it came down to the way apple Bluetooth interacts with Bluetooth devices. No idea about android/other devices. The behavior with apple is the same with any random Bluetooth speaker, it appears our cars are only playing what they're instructed to play. Thought I'd share before you start pulling your hair out, however if you find another way around the "feature" please share.

 

I use the iOttie phone holder, purchased from Amazon. I use the included adhesive disk to attach it to my dash. No idea how it will work if I decide to buy a dash mat. The suction cup uses adhesive as well to "stage" it I guess. It works very well I rarely use the A/C so the position mounted doesn't bother me.

 

Got this for 10 bucks. Really chinsy. But has a solar charger. Works better as a spare battery as it takes forever to charge via the sun, so I use a phone charger. Had to velcro the holder/phone.

But oddly, I really like it.




*edit, Google maps rocks! Update "street view" and GMs shows you a picture of final destination before and after you get there. It works far better than my 5 GPS!

Majorly important as I am a courier. Nothing like looking for an address in rain, snow or bad areas, armed with a mini-flashlight.

 

I use the NiteIze Steelie I am very happy with it. The Phone stays in position and I have only had it move when I hit a pothole that was pretty big and unavoidable, and then I just had to adjust the angel back up a little bit. I mounted the ball just above the Start button on my PC and used some 3M cable guides to route and hide the USB cable from the accessory port. It is minimal and doesnt look big or out of place. I use a rubber phone case and cut out a small circle for the pad that goes on the phone and I really dont notice it on the phone.

 

If you don't listen to CDs (who does these days?), get this:

That's what I use in my car and it also works very well in my wife's C.
By the way, that big yellow sticker can be peeled off

 

Have a CD mount as well. Came in today as a matter of fact.

 

I was wrong about the location of the mount in the car. It is on the smooth flat section between the Start button and the Infotainment system.

 

Uber cool!
Any links for 'em?

Here us it what it looks like mounted, and what it blocks from the screen.

 

Sorry, are you serious? the link is right there in my original post...
Do you not see it? If not, go to amazon.com and search for "Mountek nGroove"

 

Thanks, Mo!

Just noticed, db. So seriously, thanks.

 

I modified a McNally cup holder mount and attached the flexible neck and phone holder to the unused start button blank on my dash.
