can any who mounted a hardwired cell phone cradle please post pics of install location? TIA...
i want to hardwire and mount my cell phone cradle, but haven't decided on a good location. mainly trying to decide between the right side of the radio (cramping the passenger room) or maybe to the side of the e-brake.... any thoughts?

Don't mount here

For my next phone (this one's getting on in years) I plan on building a mounting plate which comes out from the right side of the radio, angled slightly towards the driver.

large pics, not for the bandwidth deprived =)
Custom fabricated Delrin mounting base. Factory Nextel i1000 phone holder(modified to fit mounting base).

Re: This is the best place....I agree...slightly different method
There is actually enough room between the edge of the glove box and the center console that you can fit a piece of ABS and bolt it to the center console. One samsonite magnetic cellphone later and you are in business.

Cel Phone Mount
Custom fabricated Delrin mounting base.
Q: Is this the material you used? It looks like a block of wood--painted.
Factory Nextel i1000 phone holder(modified to fit mounting base).
Q: Does it come with the toothed dish to allow rotating?
