Which phone holder are yall using and where are you mounting it?

[El_Dude]

I've tried windshield mounting but several times it falls. I have iphone 13 max with a card thing on the back so it's pretty heavy. plus this texas heat doesnt help. I've also suction-cup mounted on that little grey plastic area near the top of the dash next to the pen holder thing. But it also falls from there. Could be im buying cheap ass holders too tho. I usually buy from Ross or Burlington. The have a universal turny ball thingy to pivot the phone but i have to tighten the plasic nut so tight so the phone doesnt sag, the platic nut just breaks over time. They never last. Any reccomendations. My truck has the basic bluetooth radio, not the apple maps one so I need my phones gps. Any recommendation?

Scosche. I have a 2014 Laramie so you might have to look around, see where you can mount it.

I mount it just above the large display. Has held for years.

I'm impressed
That's $60 less than my bulletpoint

These metal plates might also come in handy, depending on phone. I've had mine since 2017, no issues. My wife even mounted one to the kitchen window so she can watch her podcasts while making my sammich!

I dont use one. I just put it in a slot under my climate controls. This isnt my truck but a pic of where i put it. None of those dash mounts stick for me. I do have a windshield holder but i dont use it. If i need nav, ill just plug into Android Auto and leave it in the slot.

This guy from wally, the silicone sucker is phenomenal, it has like a glue (but not). NEVER have had it fall off. Heck trying to take it off feels like I was going to break it. Bottom left corner of windshield.



for the GPS, I got some acrylic circle "mirrors" also from wally It's about 3 or 4" and put it with 3M molding tape on he flat area to the left of the glasses shelf (RAM).

Looks like another useful solution.

This one is for me, thanks for sharing!

This is the only mount I've found throughout the years that has held my phone in landscape or portrait and won't fall. Even off-road in my Wrangler while rock crawling or hitting mud holes it holds true. Also, since the magnet is adhered to the back of your phone, you can stick your phone to anything magnetic for how to videos while under your truck for example.

I second the nite ize. Fantastic product. 3m adhesive to the top of my dash. Get the bigger ball and magnet for a large phone. I’m using MagSafe adapter. Phone sticks right on.
Before MagSafe I glued the socket side to back of my case. Could mount my phone to anything carbon steel based. Obviously SS fridges are a no go and fords.

Why would you want adhesive tape on your dash? That would melt on mine where it gets anywhere from 105 to 118° in summer.

Even 100° I wouldn't want adhesive tape on my dash.

I used Nite Ize with an older Note 10 Plus. Eventually , the magnet did end up messing with my S Pen, though. This looks like an Apple safe equivalent.

I have used this one for over 2 years. Never had it come loose or other problems. Pairs nicely with a wireless carplay adapter.

Another Bulletpoint user, I like how it uses existing holes in the dash and I can swap out arms for phone or 2 way radio, and the phone goes nowhere!

I struggled with this as well. This is the first one that actually still works well for me and does not come loose.
