I put two together to achieve what I wanted, used a cup holder mount, and a vent clip mount (wireless charging), put them together. I wanted the wireless charging, and the cup holder was the perfect spot but could not find one with wireless charging. Sits perfect for me, does not get in the way of any controls!

OK, so what do you do if you and a passenger both have drinks on a long trip? Where do you put the phone then?

Some of us want something more "comprehensive" that doesn't detract from other functionality in the car, and we are willing to put in a little extra time and/or money to get to that solution.

Wondering how this holder/charger is holding up?

Still working fine! Clean, no wires. But does block cup holders when in use.

Mega Mounts

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this, but Mega Mounts look like a great solution that attaches to the air vents. Joe Achilles is always banging on about them on his YouTube channel (I guess they sponsor him). Regardless of this, I'll be getting one.

An interesting solution found on Facebook and bought from China but puts it well out of the way and still a good mounting point. Have to cover the weird fake M logo there but otherwise I'm pretty happy. Just installed tonight so time will tell if I keep it or not.

Planning to do a group buy for the US to save on shipping cost. Please send me a message if you'd like to get your name on the list for this.

I second Karlosm2c. I own one and it worked really well for my M4. Hopefully, it works out just as well in my M2C. I like the flexibility because I can stick it on any air vent. https://megamount.co.uk/collections/...ded-vent-mount

Going to contact the seller and see if I can mod this thing to work. If you stuck the metal patch to the outside of the case or directly on the phone and don't use a case, it'll be a sturdy connection.
