Title: Vent mounted phone cradle..
Post by: Simeon on 23 July 2013, 17:41

Wasn't sure where to put this, but it's mk2 specific so thought I'd ask in here..

Wanting an in car cradle for my phone, but I'm not keen on mounting things on the windscreen as it reduces visibility. I was looking at the ones that mount to the vents, but couldn't work out whether they would work on a mk2 vent and don't want to buy one for it not to fit.

Anyone got one or tried it?

Thanks

Surely you need a phone with a handset on a curly wire in a Mk2?

My friend has a sticky pad in his defender. It is literally a piece of rubber but it has enough friction to stick to the dash and stick a phone when driving. I'm gunna get one for my car, is this an option for you?

Haha, true, but I don't think it'll be very useful as a satnav :laugh:

Thanks for the idea. Having had another look at them I think I'll get a windscreen mounted one, should be able to place it where it doesn't obstruct the view too much.
