Where/How do you mount your smartphone?
 
I put my iphone in that slot next to the cupholders, but if I need it for nav (i hate the subaru nav) that doesn't really work.

Anyone have any ideas? What do you use? Pics would be appreciated.

Nice product, thanks for sharing! I've been looking for a good way to mount my phone that isn't permanent and doesn't look hideous. This just might be it.

I put my phone in the little slim slot in the cup holder unit.

I put mine in that slot. I have app radio in my headunit so I can access apps from my phone.

This is easily the best phone holder i've used over the years... and i've tried many of them!

Super sturdy and easy to use.

I got a galaxy note 2. Not many places I can put it lol. My pocket, passenger seat if im alone, or under my nut sack if I have a passenger. I learned a long time ago not to put it on my lap. Many phones sacrificed because of that.

I use the iOttie Easy Flex 2 car mount. It's not permanent but is very stable when set in place. The only problem is that it doesn't stick to surfaces that are slightly curved.

Here's their website but I purchased it off of amazon.

I mounted mine to the glove box.

I don't have a picture of this but I saw in another thread where someone posted a picture of their exomount 2 mounted on the little triangle window on the left side, so it would be visible to the left of the steering wheel. IMO that's the perfect location to mount it and it doesn't interfere with anything on the centre console.

Edit: Found the pictures. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...6&postcount=22

IMagnet Mount on the lower left windshield. Fished the USB charging cable from the glove box to the A Pillar....Perfect!

FWIW I have a Galaxy Note 2.
