Waterboy1...you are in luck. If you order through my website: Ram Truck Phone Holder - WadeStar Products I can get one shipped up to you! I ship to Canada on a regular basis. ;)

Just ordered one, this is such an awesome idea! I've been cursing Ram's name for putting in that stupid business card holder instead of a useful place for a cell phone. Hope the small holds my S7 pretty tight, don't want it rattling around. Can't wait!

Upthewazzu,

Thank you so much for your order! It is all boxed up and ready to ship out tomorrow. And...since you live in Washington...it should get to you by Monday (maybe Saturday) as I am located in Stanwood, WA.

Thank you, again...and please let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

Wade,

This is great! I got it yesterday, and the small fit my S7 (with low profile slim case) like a glove. Great work, 10/10!

As a small business owner myself I have to congratulate you Wade for making this a reality. You had a problem, found a solution, and shared it. All in a very classy way (not just the product, but your attitude and customer service).

One way I know that (in addition to your interaction on this board) is that you currently have 75 reviews on Amazon - 95% 5 Star and NOT A SINGLE 1 or 2 Star rating. That, my friend, is incredible. No matter how good a product is there is always someone who doesn't pay attention to the application, or is ticked that Amazon Prime took three days, or the box was ripped or some such nonsense and takes it out on the seller.

If I didn't already have a solution I would definitely order one. I bought a Scoche magnetic one and mounted it on top of the dash next to the little cubby in the center. Only thing I don't like about it is that the steel plate that holds the phone on bumps the back of the case out just a bit and makes it a bit "rounded" rather than nice and flat. But the position is perfect, especially for navigation.

All the best,

What a great note! Thank you so much, TestPilot57!

It is cliche to say 'I have the best customers in the world!', but that is truly how I feel. To meet so many great people through this venture has made the journey absolutely worth it! I am very thankful to meet people like you and I so appreciate notes like this.

I am also so thankful for all those who have given a review on Amazon! I am forever indebted to all those who have taken time to post a review.

I have another product coming out later this month, which is a custom fit Blind Spot Mirrors for the non-towable mirrors Ram put on their trucks from 2009-2015. The same goal applies...make a great product, make sure the customer is well taken care of!

If there is any way I can help you with your business, or products...please let me know. We are a community and I am happy to do what I can!

Thank you, again!
Wade

Finally got around to ordering one of these. I actually planned to a while back and then kind of forgot all about it until I was using my phone for gps while travelling last week and trying to balance it in a cupholder while still being plugged in lol.

Looking forward to those blind spot mirrors as well, will definitely buy a pair of those when available! Awesome ideas, keep up the great work and I may be buying everything you come up with :cheers:

Thank you, Mark!

Your RPC Phone Holder is all ready and is being shipped out this morning! Thank you for your order! It is greatly appreciated!

Also, thank you for the note on the Blind Spot Mirrors. Everything is moving forward and I am still shooting for the end of the month when they will be ready.

Thank you for your note, and please let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

Wade, Just a quick note, after reading the comments from site members about your product and especially your service, I have come to the conclusion that you and Matt, from Moe's Performance, should partner up and go around the country and give seminars to other business owners on customer relations. Both of you have the best customer service I have ever experienced in my ?? number of years as a consumer. You'all are truly an outstanding example of how to do things right. Well done!!!!!

Pull Ya, Wow...that was very nice of you to say!! I am not sure I could receive a kinder note than this. I feel very honored!

I have never met Matt from Moe's, but his reputation precedes him as I have heard what a great guy he is. To be mentioned in the same breath is an honor and I appreciate you taking time out of your day to write.

If there is anything I can ever do for you...I am at your service! Please do keep in touch!

Thank you, again!

Wade

Hey Wade, just a thought, have you shared the picture with the forum showing your phone holder used in the new style console? Before I came across this thread, I was going to swap out my console to the new style to hold my phone. Glad I got your phone holder as it works great holding the phone. It is also easy to use the phone in the holder. Plus it can be plugged in while in the holder.
So, a month or so ago, I was looking at a Torred 1500 Sport. It had the new console as it is a 2016. When I test drove it, I put my phone in the console. It holds it well, but the accessibility is more limited, plus the angle is a little more vertical. I could put my iPad Mini in it, but that is the only advantage IMHO.
Now the funny part here is, I thought man, I don't wanna give up the RPC phone holder!! Then I thought, well, I'd be able to buy someone's '15 console that was swapped out to the new style. Then when we talked last week, you sent me a photo of the RPC phone holder in the new console. I didn't even think of trying it.
So, I'll leave it up to you, maybe post a photo in the new console?
Best wishes, Bob F

I have a 2016 Quad cab 4x4 5.7 Hemi My holder works just fine for me. It lays the phone back further. Fits tight in the new console. I will not go without mine ever! I'm the guy that sent Wade the pic's :favorites13: I will post up some picture's tomorrow. If you have the pics wade post them up! I will try to get better one's tomorrow!

Bob,

Always great hearing from you! And, thank you for the kind words. I am realizing more and more that the RPC Phone Holder may have a place in the newer consoles. Attached are the pictures that JJK sent me of his RPC Phone Holder in his new 2016. (By the way...amazing customization of his Phone Holder with the Mopar emblem).

Wade

What I did was paint matched to my truck. Granite crystal And put a 2 inch matte black vinyl graphic in it. It turned out well! :naughty:

Wade,

I have the 40/20/40 seat. I do have a seat bolt mount that I was thinking about using. Could you send me a picture of the back of one? I really want one, but can't figure out how to use it in the bench style seat truck, unless I missed it in the thread somewhere. Thanks.

Jeff,

The dimensions of the RPC Phone Holder won't fit in the slot that your console has. But, write me at [email protected] and I will see if I can find a spare phone holder laying around that I can send you...and maybe you can modify it to make it work for you.
