How the hell did the cop know his phone was there?
Got pulled into a RIDE (DUI) checkpoint. Cop sticks his head in window to take a sniff sees phone sitting in open and makes him pull to side. The guy is a yes sir no sir type so I don't think he mouthed off or anything to provoke it either.

Here's my pic, should've posted sooner. Works whether you have a replaceable battery with door or not as the metal tabs are very thin and have adhesive on one side.

Cup holder. But if you have a 6 plus consider a Ram mount with Phablet attachment. Fits in small corner window and you can open and close door fine. See picture. I used to use Note3 but use HTC One M8 now.

I have a GS4 and slide it in the center console in front of the cupholders. Then I have a thick 5-inch micro USB cable plugged in with my phone connected to the BRZ through Bluetooth.

Everybody here should recognize that Android Auto and Apple Carplay head units are going to show up by the end of 2014.

I use the suction cup version of the Magic Mount in that location for my OFT when I'm logging.

And? Still going to need a place to mount the phone if you want access to it. I know it's supposed to be a perfect duplication but let's be real - it'll take a while to get that done.

Me personally I'm thinking about taking the radio out altogether and just slapping a blank sheet of carbon fiber in its place...I never use it. I'd take all the speakers out too if I do.

I have an original Galaxy Note that I use just for Torque. It lives in its original Samsung car mount stuck to the triangular window.



For my Galaxy 4s, I made my own phone mount to put it where I want it. That way I can access maps, music and the rest without fumbling with the phone.




I also carry an iPhone 5, but it just stays in the slot in the cupholder.

So, do the magic mounts really work? I was thinking about picking one up for my galaxy s5.

Does anyone with an Iphone 6 know if it fits in that cupholder phone holder thing that Scion gives out?

Mine sits in the Proclip mount ( http://www.proclipusa.com/dashboard-...812-19051.cmsv ) so I can use it for navigation while waiting for Android Auto to come out.
