    With the very specialized console of my Prius, I am having a tough time finding a good MagSafe phone mount/charger for my iPhone. Anyone find a perfect mounting solution?

    The vent fins are too delicate to use one of those types (one of my vents is already broken from normal use!) and I don’t really want to give up a cup holder as I use them both often.

    +1 ProClip. I've had their setup for the Prius and used various Android phones and its been great and very solid, even if its a bit pricy up front.

    Its a multi-part system. First you need the car mount base and then your phone specific mount.

    Here are the car base mount options for my 2015 Prius: 2015 Toyota Prius Dashboard Mounts | ProClip USA

    For example here is the iPhone MagSafe but it looks like you need to bring your own MagSafe charger: Apple iPhone 12 Pro Car Phone Holders | ProClip USA

    I have the Center Dash Mount that goes over the air vents but only half blocks it. Perfect place above the radio but doesn't block any view of the speedometer cluster. I used to have a custom phone mount for my old Nexus 6, but recently I got the "Qi Wireless Charging Universal Car Phone Holder" when I got a new phone since I can use it with different phones. Will try to get a picture tomorrow if I remember.
