Title: Phone holder ???
Post by: gazza222 on August 10, 2018, 02:32:59 pm

Hi, what’s the best phone holder, and place to put it ? Don’t really want to block any vents off .
    What is everyone using in their mk5s ?
Many thanks

I've got one of the brodit mounts. Very well made, secure and not in the way of any vents. A bit pricey - you have to buy two parts and theyre getting on for £20 each. But very happy with it. It slots into gaps in the trim so no screwing to the dash or anything.

You'll need this:

plus the version of this which is correct for your phone:

I'm interested in this too. I'd like to eventually do away completely with my satnav and just use my phone for everything.

I like the look of the Brodit kit but I change my phone quite often and I also usually use a case - so I'm guessing my handsets would necessarily fit?

Have you got a pic of it in your car? Where did you place it?

I have this iPow quick installation CD slot phone holder and it is great and well made.
