My 1st EXEC.......

my first XDA EXEC will be here 2moz
may be buying one of these http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=3091
does anyone know if you have to use the mic and speaker function ?
because i would only like to use the charger function
and which mounting arm do you get with this ?
or is it worth me just getting the HR Window Mounting Kit With the Extending arm ?

I would strongly advise against using that sort of mount. They can be quite a tight fit for the Exec and, much worse, can put pressure on the mini-USB port sufficent to wrench it off the motherboard. Much much better to use the Brodit system.

thanks for the reply i eventually decided to go for the HR mount with vibration-free suction with extending arm
very sturdy
also puchased the bluetooth gps mount which is intergrated into the pda mount.....
but instead of sticking the bt gps unit directly to the mount (as specified) i used sticky velcro so i can remove the gps unit from the car easily

Proclip is what you want. proclipusa dot com.
Get the car specific base mount for your ride, and then pick up either a "ball" mount (i.e. ball and socket - Garmin Nuvi 660 piece will work), or look at the "dual prong T" mounting clip with tilt-swivel. This should fit into the back of the OEM car mount (just slide this in instead of the supplied bits). I haven't tested the dual-prong T thing, but it looks like it should work.
I have tested the ball and socket method and it does work, although it's not quite as snug as I'd like. Proclip's swivel adapters are a lot more secure / stiffer.
Especially with the D2, where the mount is way more elaborate. The original D1 mount worked better with the ball & socket setup since it was lighter.

i found this one during my search

its looks to be D2 specific...so ill post up some pics once i get it

I've been using Pro-Clip for years (ATT 8525, Tilt, Fuze, VZW TP2), so I've got the vehicle mount already.
I picked up the OEM D2 mount, but was still scratching my head on how to mount it to the Proclip vehicle mount (I HATE suction cups on the windshield). So, I just ordered the two-prong T plate
http://www.proclipusa.com/store/pro...)-mounting-plate-with-tilt-swivel-215199.aspx
Looks like it should work great - will see in a few days when the order arrives.

Finally got the two-prong plate for the proclip mount and put it on last night. The OEM car mount cradle fits it like a glove, and I've got the ability to adjust for angle too! Definitely a great way to go (although not cheap when I add up all the individual components).
Now to figure out just which apk's to rename to disable that ghey "Cardock" app - the media player it links is TERRIBLE!

I know this is an old thread, but I got a Proclip and love it. Just wanted to say thanks for the lea.

ExoMount2 Best Car Mount in my experience

I had few different car mounts before but they fell off when temperature is hot. This mount is totally different. The suction cup is very sticky and doesn't fall off at all even after few month of usage. It still works like a brand new. I just want to share this with other users who had problems with their mount

Car mount for dash cam use?

I used to use my old nexus 6 as a dash cam but that mount is long gone, any recommendations for a car mount that will work with the s8+ and the tech 21 case? Doesn't have to charge just have enough space in the back for the camera to record.

i think most car dash mount will not block the camera. You just need to notice whether the mount is able to hold the phone with case as thick as yours.

IMO, this is the best car mount. For anything.

By far this is the best mount never let me down yet

Cooling phone with car/vehicle vent mounting options?

I have a 2017 Chevrolet Cruze Premier Hatchback, and use the iOttie Easy One Touch Qi Wireless Fast Charge Car Mount. I'm wondering if it's possible to mount my phone either on or in front of one of the AC/Heat vents. Living in Texas during the summer (which is pretty much 10-11 months out of the year), phones have a tendency to overheat when using a dashboard or windshield mount when wireless charging.
The vents are vertical, so vent clip based ones that go directly onto the vent seem to have the disadvantage of being able to move freely from left to right due to the additional weight especially when turning. I recently tried this one and it didn't work out too well.
I've checked out a few places that were suggested to me which included Panavise and Proclip, but they didn't help. The Panavise initially looked okay but its for a 2015. Upon contacting them to see if it would work, they said the 2017 was too different. Proclip has one, but it says for sedan only. Ideally I would like to be able to still use the iOttie with a mount that has AMPS mounting/holes. CD mount isn't option as the car is not equipped with one. Thoughts?

If your CD player is a little bit below your AC vents, you could use a CD mount. I have a 2007 Ford Freestyle and this setup works great for me. BTW, I'm in Irving, TX.
