Cell phone mounts

[jennam]

My search-fu is failing me. Seems like we've discussed this before but I can't find it. What are y'all using for cell phone mounts?

I recently got this:

RAM® X-Grip® Phone Mount with RAM® Twist-Lock™ Suction Cup

Details and specifications of the RAM® X-Grip® Phone Mount with RAM® Twist-Lock™ Suction Cup, Part No. RAM-B-166-UN7U. UPC: 793442937200. Additional information includes compatibility lists, components, assembly instuctions/videos.

Except I'm using the long arm instead of medium that it came with.

I have it suction mounted to the tunnel cap, between the shifter cables, between the seats, behind the shifter, in front of the parking brake handle. Not much extra room but it works. I do have an extended version, I think the standard length doesn't get enough room in this spot to squeeze it in.

The spec is a diameter wider than the tunnel cap but it doesn't require the full diameter of the base to suction, so it works. I do use the retention webbing.

I found a left over "air vent style" mount in the house that has actually worked well.
Hook up a USB charger to the accessory drop behind the panel and you got your charging cord as well.

Bleh... I never thought about using a vent mount. I may have to look for one of those. I need to find one before the meetup this weekend.

I personally used a mount made for a bike, they have a strap that you can put around the tube next to the gauge cluster.

I tried one similar to that but it wouldn’t go on with the hood. I may need to tinker more with it.
