Cell phone mount f30

What phone mounts does everybody use for their 3 series? I've bought a couple, and either they break, or don't stay in place.

Look on www.proclip.com. I have used them in my E46 and my work vehicles in my career as a state trooper. I'm getting one for my 15 335i. My 12 328i had the phone package so I didn't need it.

Proclip has very good mounts, buy in two parts, the phone holder then the mount. You can get console and vent clips:

Another vote for proclip. I got the one that mounts my phone to the left of my steering wheel. With a extension spacer, my iPhone is within a finger's reach of the steering wheel, within my periphery vision, and doesn't block anything in my center console. I mounted a USB jack under the dash panel to keep the cords tidy.

There's not really any adhesive aside from a few very small pieces of double backed tape for the mounting bracket.

I use Koomus CD Mount. It slides in to your CD player and you hook it in place.

ProClip is definitely a great choice. However, in the past few years I've been using Ram Mounts in all my vehicles.

Right now I'm using a Ram Mount cupholder mount with a small arm and Xgrip cradle, but they have a plethora of mounting options available for every vehicle. All of which are customizable for different locations and with differents sized arms, balls and cradles.

You should definitely give them a shot, they're incredible.

Is this one magnetic? I might get my gf it considering it's very simple if it is so.
