[GRC888]

Has anyone installed the VE accessory centre console mobile phone mount and holder?

If so, it would be appreciated if you could post some pics.

Thanks.

Hey Glenn,

Have a look at this website. ClicOn is the bigest manufacturer of screwless mobile and PDA mounts in the world.

I highly reccomend these mounts and they give 3 options for the VE and leave the factory unit for dead.

Thanks for that link.. exactly what im after as well.. my mobile does not fit anywhere comfortably in the VE. That centre mount one looks the goods.

Thats a good site but expensive for a piece of plastic :p

why not upgrade to a bluetooth phone? fortunately, it cost me nothing changing from CDMA to next G and now I just drop the phone in the console or door. No need for a mount.

Still need to see screen for incoming call screening and for dialing numbers not voice programmed.

Also secures mobile phone in the event of sudden deceleration - ie. a collision thus preventing it becoming a lethal flying projectile.

I bought a mobile phone holder today from supacheap. clips into the aircon vent and cost $6. Yep, sounds cheap but does the job, doesn't look nasty and you can put it on aircon vent...

I use the bluetooth.

My phone is however placed in the space where the Left Hand Drive hand brake lever would be situated - ie on passenger side near the gear lever. Only mod was to stick some black padding (in this case the soft part of velcro tape - ie not the part with the plastic hooks) - to stop the phone from sliding.

The phone is accesible, and is always in the same spot when in the car. I can see the inbound number as the phone screen lights up. Plus fills up a storage gap.
