although if quality is a concern, bluetooth probably isn't the best option to get it to your head unit.

I have a Ram suction cup mount right next to the rear view mirror. I can't take a picture of it with my phone in it, since it's the only camera I have.

iOttie Easy Flex2 for $17 at Amazon, takes 30 seconds to install. Has a super grippy suction cup that allows it to stick to textured surfaces. No problems for the last 6 months. Bought one for every car in the fleet.

After looking around the forum I've decided to try out the iottie 2 my only question is why didn't you mount it higher like in the silver part next to the head unit? Does it have trouble gripping? Can you show me a pic where you mounted it?

I also just got one of these. keanu airframe

I can say it doesn't work well with our recessed air vents. I might also mod it to fit in the little slot under the ac between the push button and aux/USB section.

it's super grippy and has no problems gripping to textured surfaces, only reason why i mounted it so low is to still have access to the glovebox. i could probably mount it a few inches higher. i'll try to take pics later today.

Copied this from another thread where I posted about imagnet iPhone mount.

Simply the best...no messing with crappy clamp style holders.

I mounted mine on the drivers side "little triangle" window and ran a long iPhone charging cord under the ebrake boot and steering column so it comes out at the side of the drivers dash next to the mount.

Just got the iottie holder and its sticks to the dash very good. For the price you can`t beat it.

I have one of these that I used to mount the phone to the center passenger side air vent that lets me use the iphone as a dash cam, as well as a music player.
