I have taken pictures of my Pixel 3 (5.7" tall) mounted in the tall cradle version. The iPhone 12 in comparison is 5.78" tall. Just before the armrest reaches full extension, the phone touches the front of the tray then slides over with a light pressure. The cradle has a built-in angle and the idea was to allow the phone to easily slide in and out without lifting the armrest but unfortunately that isn't the case with the armrest in full extension. Ideally, I should look into increasing the cradle's angle a little bit to provide full clearance in all positions. Let me know if you are interested.



Fully retracted

Fully pulled forward

Good afternoon MH, is that with the armrest all the way down? It looks like it. If the armrest was just pulled up a bit then it would clear?

​​​​​​Correct, the armrest is fully down on these pictures. When lifted to the first click, there's plenty of clearance. Thanks for pointing that out.

Default NEW REVISION COMING SOON

For anyone else interested, I'm now out of these versions and I will have a new revision available in early June 2021. I will provide details in a new thread at that time.

Thanks to all who have placed orders in the last 2 years.

UPDATE: look here for the new lower price versions: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/aud...-drop-3038355/

Just installed this cradle on my S5 2017, definitely worth it if you don’t
have wireless Carplay. It was delivered to the UK in one week
