Dash-mount cell holders

What is everyone/anyone(?) using as a dashmount for their cell phones? If you could post pics and where you got them it would be great. I did a quick search with little luck.

Check out Pro Fit Mounts. I am using one of their vehicle specific and universal mounts. Easy to install.

This is temporary: I pull out my cupholder, take my beltclip and clip it on the front of the pass side hole, push the cup holder back in. It works good for now. Although the cell blocks the heater controls somewhat.

I clip mine to the Visor....it works well. I can hear it, and It's easily accesible without me having to break concentration.

This is what I did.




I cut up an original Din slot pocket I found in the wrecking yard, and installed it next to my CB.



I also wired a 12V aux power port next to it to keep my phone charger plugged in all the time.



After I took this picture, I stuck little adhesive plastic buttons inside the slot that grip the phone and hold it snug in the slot, but allow me to just pull it out when I need it.

Cheap easy: I have velcro stuck to my dash. And Velcro stuck to the back of my HUGE brick of a phone nextel. Works good, is out of the way, and is cheaper than anything else out there.

Yes it is, but it no longer serves as a charger - that was for an old phone. Now it's just a holder.
