What phone holder for f30

chris-c · 08-12-2018, 02:35 PM

I like my car. It looks great THEN I get in it. All looks internally go out the window.

I'm happy enough with CarPlay and iDrive, so the reasons for mounting don't exist for me.

Others prefer to have a mount, fair play to you.

It’s not a beautiful classic car, it’s just a 3 series mate!

True but OCD re stuff hanging around.

I hate the idea of blocking vents or mounting on the windscreen, so I made this out of Sugru and a 90° Belkin Ligthning cable. A bit of silicon keeps the cable down.

I'd definitely rather block a vent!

Where is Caz when you need him? He probably has a brilliant phone holder for those of us needing eye bleach.

Have tried two holders now

brodit mount- blocks the vent quite a bit, so will be going back
Belkin cup - good position, but loss of bottle/key space is quite annoying

will try and mock up a custom one shortly.

Mine sits either in the door pocket, or, if it needs charging while I'm driving, it sits in the centre console.
