dibble9012 - do you have a pic of where on the dash you mount the cellphone?

 

I do not have a pic, but they should have one on the site I gave you, if you search up your specific vehicle. On my truck, they had two different types on mounts, one on the dash in front of the center left air vent, and the other on the center console. I chose the one in front of the airvent so I can safely glance at my ipod/cell phone while driving.

 

maybe i am just a broke college kid who would rather spend 40 bucks on beer or something else then a cell phone holder, but i just put my phone on the seat between my legs, so i am kinda sitting on it. you wont hear it, but you will defently feel it ring.

 

I just use my Bluetooth headset. All I have to do is reach up and push a button on it and it answers my phone.

 

not to hijack the thread, but how do you like that new Razor? it looks pretty sweet

 

It's a pretty nice phone. Not too feature packed considering it's cost, but I'm not a big PDA type guy, so I don't miss them. It really garners alot of attention when you use it in public, especially when people touch it. The metal and glass materials it's made of really need to be felt to be appreciated. It's a very slick looking phone. I'm a big fan of the Bluetooth function. That headset is so comfortable I forget it's on my ear. The only problem is you look like a geek walking around with that thing on your bean.

 

theres just a little sticky pad on the back, stuck it right to the dash there. it'll come off with some goo gone.

 

I "mount" mine in the tray in the console under the Ebrake handle. It stays put just fine.. unless I happen to ever get inverted.. hmm

 

velcro works better than anything

 

I mounted my cell phone in the.....wait, I dont have one. Good thing THAT was essential to the operation of my 4runner

 

I just clip mine here. Easy to see and access.

 

not quite sure from that miniscule pic of where youre referring to

 

Sorry. There is a black arrow pointing to the top driver assist handle that I installed.

 

ohhh i see it now!

 

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I have had the same thing happen. I did have to back up to keep from being hit, but had to stop to keep from hitting the car behind me. Horn blaring and SHE was totally oblivious. When she finally looked in her rearview (what a concept) she had already stopped and put it in drive. She sees me doing one of these: except my face was more like . Then gives me the finger/look like I had done something wrong. Happens all the time. And no I am not sexist, but for all of the talk that women multi-task better, it seems that 80% of this talking while driving poorly issue involves a female driver. It seems all of the drivers here have the, "It wasn't MY fault" thing going on here too. They cut me off and flip ME OFF!! Or go to change lanes (w/o a turn signal, as usual) and I'm beside them. Give a honk, and get the finger?!?! What the HELL?!?! The best one was when my girlfriend was on her lunch break at the doctor’s office. She was in her 4Runner eating Wendy's in a parking spot. A guy in his 50's (they can do no wrong behind the wheel here) is pulling into the spot next to her, and hits the 4Runner. He backs up tries again...and hit it AGAIN!! This time he doesn’t try to back up...he HITS THE GAS to try and push by!! It picks up the back right tire of the 4Runner and his front tire. By now he figures maybe he should park somewhere else, and starts to back up. My girlfriend gets out, stunned, which is good ‘cause she is not pleasant when pissed (she once rammed a guy in a Ranger with a lifted ranch truck...long story). Anyways he starts to drive off and sees her and says "These parking spaces are kinda’ small." then drives off to a different part of the lot!! Another young guy runs up, saying he saw the whole thing, and will be a witness. My girlfriend calls the cops, and the guy acts like nothing he did was wrong (he is over 50 and she is only 21 after all, it had to be her fault for...uh...parking there...he gave the usual ‘punk kids’ speech, but the cop told him to shut up). DICK!!

 

I'm broke to and I'm not a huge fan of mounting things on my dash. I agree with tofer. I put it on vibrate and put it in my lap or between my legs and like he said, you will feel it ring. nothing sexual intended.

 

I use a pretty high tech phone mount....they call it velcro!! Just through a piece on the back of your phone and then another on the dashboard (mine is just right of the middle air vent above the glove box). Works fine, i can see the phone light up, and quite cheap!

 

They have them for $7.95 at MyWirelessDeals

I ordered one a few days ago. They sell both the Panavise and Pro-Fit brackets. They were out of the Panavise for my 1998 but still had Pro-Fit left. Mine should be here today or Monday.

I'm going to cover it with velcro and see if it will hold my GPS. When I'm not using it for the GPS, I'll probably do the same with my phone.

thats why i like the one i bought (on page 1), it expands to fit something extremely wide... ie the new pda/gps device i just got on ebay.
