help for Car Mount

sharra11 · 06-16-2023, 07:08 PM

I have a ‘24 LCI. The vents are tiny. Any good recommendations for a car mount. Yes I know it has a wireless charger (charges at a snails pace)

I recommend A-Tach mount or Proclip.

I second this recommendation

I opted to use one of the cup holders for this one:

Just curious, If you just want to charge your phone faster, why not use the usb-c port inside central storage?

sharra11 · 06-20-2023, 04:18 PM

I do. But I want to be unsafe and see my phone screen as well. Lol

IF you use the highway assist driving a lot, it is better to mount phone above the top of the Dash line. It keeps bother you to pay attention for driving, if you look lower than that line.

Yeah that won’t work. The problem with a majority of the mounts is the vents in the new 24 x5. I’ll just have to trial and error. I’ll report back in case any of you are also interested

I am using this on left side and working pretty well.
It does not activate warning sign of attention on the road.
I put a wireless charger on it.

If you have iPhone, magnetic mount is the best way to go.

I use this cup holder magnetic mount - it works very well. The magnet is strong enough (there are some which are not). I don't want charging each time I put it on, so I want this magnetic mount without wireless charging.

I hate mount which blocks the vent. So don't like A-Tach/Proclip vent location; and Proclip's console mount need angled extension, and the whole thing becomes just too clumsy.
