Tape Deck/Console Mounted GPS Phone Holder
After seeing the 3-in-1 cupholder, some of you guys were asking about a phone mount to be able to use the phone as a GPS. Rooski Innovations delivers!
A modular design system has been developed that functions similarly to many mainstream vehicle phone mounts. This modular system can hold devices as narrow as 2 1/4" (across the screen) to as wide as you like!
Both designs feature a spring-return clamping system that holds any device (up to ~0.8 inches; can be modified upon request). These springs are easily changed out upon the user's discretion. This mechanism features guide slots to track the arms of the clamp.
There are currently 2 'mounting' options available for the holder:
1) console mounted
2) tape deck insert
The console mounted device holder simply slides between the console cover and the leather console support, next to the radio head unit. It features an additional lip to help prevent and wobble or topple of the unit.
The console mounted unit was tested with some hard neighborhood cornering, as well as at 40mph around a small roundabout; the rear end of the car kicked out while the mount (with iPhone 5s) didn't budge. Disclaimer: If you are racing your car, I can't guarantee that the mount will stay in place. However, as tested, under most conditions it should stay.
If you would like to have the console mount mirrored to fit on the driver's side of the console, I can make that happen.
The tape deck mounted holder is pictured in a Lexus SUV, however, should still fit well in the NSX tape deck. The rest of the unit is identical to the console mounted, except for the 'mounting' method to the car.
To clarify, the modular system is based on using the same device holding structure for either mount, not interchanging the mount. It is 1 mounting style per item.
The base price for each Mounted GPS/Phone Holder will be $30.00, which includes shipping to the continental 48 states. Customizations can be made at a negotiable price.
To order, email Jeff at: [email protected]. Invoices will be sent via Paypal (and can be paid with/without a Paypal account).
UPDATE: there is now an option to have the tape deck mount allow your phone to be mounted horizontally! This option only applies to the Tape Deck mount, but can be modified to work for the console mount as well (upon request). This horizontal mount makes sure the phone is as centered as possible across the middle of the console, and accommodates devices from a range of about 5"-6.5".
Both sides/ends of the mount feature holes for charging cables, so you can lay your phone in either landscape orientation.
UPDATE: available are now the options for the following new features:
1) flipped tape deck mounts will hold the phone over the radio controls rather than the A/C controls
2) slimmer units to hold the phone closer to the console with less play
