joeruby1 · 12-17-2018, 10:57 AM

anyone have any nice ideas on how to mount a phone mount in the New G05 ?

I used a magnetic mount in my F15, but am undecided if it is needed with the G05:

Mount it? For what reason?

I use this - it works fine and the magnetic mounts are much lower profile than the ones that hold the phone on the sides.

but in G05 i am kinda going against it due to carplay doing what i need

in the G05 it seems that the vent phone mounts will be blocking the hvac and heated seat controls wondering is there is any other option

Best one I have ever had was the proclip ones - contacted them and they think they will have one that custom fits Q1 - going to wait it out - nothing else is even half a good that I have tried.

wife got one that mounted to the air vent below center screen seems to be about the only place to put one.

That mount looks very handy. Does it have a fan inside and can you hear it, if so. That would annoy me.

Yeah if phone is attached I guess it would cover some crap just take the phone off press the buttons and put the phone back won't kill you
