The Cadillac CT5 went through a major interior redesign for the 2025 model year, and that redesign changed everything about how a phone mount fits inside it. Earlier CT5 models (2020 to 2024) use a compact 10-inch center touchscreen with a traditional dashboard bezel, while the redesigned 2025 and newer CT5 and CT5-V trims use a sweeping 33-inch curved display that spans the entire dashboard.
A Cadillac CT5 phone mount that clips onto one screen size will not fit the other, so getting the right generation matters more here than in almost any other vehicle we cover. Below we break down the best screen-clip mounts for each CT5 generation, plus two universal mounts for drivers who prefer not to touch the screen bezel at all.
| Mount | Best For | Years/Trim |
|---|---|---|
| Katorn 10-Inch Screen Mount | CT5 owners with the original 10-inch touchscreen | 2020 through 2024, all trims |
| Katorn 33-Inch Screen Mount | CT5 owners with the redesigned curved display | 2025 and newer, CT5 and CT5-V |
| SKYLOTEC 33-Inch Screen Mount | Drivers who want an alternate bracket design for the curved display | 2025 and newer, CT5 and CT5-V |
| TORRAS Vacuum MagSafe Mount | Drivers who want maximum holding strength on the dash or windshield | Universal, all CT5 generations |
| andobil Car Mount Pro | Drivers who want a factory-look carbon fiber finish on the vent | Universal, all CT5 generations |
Best Cadillac CT5 Phone Mount for the 10-Inch Screen (2020 to 2024)
If your CT5 has the original center touchscreen, the Katorn screen-clip mount is built specifically around that bezel. It clips onto the edge of the 10-inch display using a spring-loaded bracket, so there is no adhesive, no drilling, and no dash space lost. The magnetic head is MagSafe compatible, meaning modern iPhones snap on directly, and non-MagSafe phones can use the included metal plate. Because the mount attaches to the screen bezel rather than the air vent, it does not block any of the CT5’s climate vents, which sit below and to the side of the display on this generation.
The arm holds the phone at eye level next to the touchscreen, which keeps navigation prompts and incoming call alerts in your peripheral vision without forcing you to glance down at the console. Rotation is a full 360 degrees, so the phone can be used in portrait or landscape orientation depending on whether you are running turn-by-turn navigation or a media app.
Best Cadillac CT5 Phone Mount for the 33-Inch Curved Display (2025 and Newer)
The redesigned CT5 replaced the old 10-inch screen with a single 33-inch curved display that stretches across the dashboard, and that changed the entire mounting geometry. Katorn’s version of this mount uses a wider clip bracket engineered for the thinner bezel edge of the curved panel, holding the phone off to the side without resting any weight on the glass itself. Like the 10-inch version, it is MagSafe compatible and rotates a full 360 degrees, and it leaves every vent and physical control on the redesigned dash untouched.
Because the 33-inch display sits higher and closer to the driver than the outgoing screen, the mounted phone lands almost directly in your line of sight, which is useful for anyone who relies heavily on turn-by-turn directions or wants to glance at incoming texts without reaching for the phone itself.
Alternative Mount for the 33-Inch Display: SKYLOTEC
SKYLOTEC makes a second screen-clip option built for the same 33-inch display shared across the redesigned CT5, Lyriq, Optiq, and XT4. The bracket design differs slightly from the Katorn mount, using a broader clamp surface that spreads pressure across more of the bezel edge. For CT5 owners who tried a screen-clip mount and found the grip point too narrow, or who simply prefer a second option to compare, this is a solid alternative built for the exact same panel.
Fit, rotation, and MagSafe compatibility are comparable to the Katorn option above, so the choice largely comes down to bracket shape and personal preference for how the mount sits against the curved glass. Both are appropriate for a CT5 with the newer display, and neither interferes with the touchscreen’s usable area.
Best Universal Suction Mount: TORRAS Vacuum MagSafe
Not every CT5 owner wants a mount clipped onto the touchscreen bezel or attached to a vent, and the TORRAS Vacuum mount solves that with a heavy-duty suction cup base rated for well over 90 pounds of holding force. It attaches directly to the windshield or dashboard rather than the screen or the climate vents, so it leaves every vent, button, and bezel on the CT5 completely untouched. The magnetic head is rated for heavy phones in thick cases, including large phones like the iPhone Pro Max line, and it holds a full 360 degrees of rotation for switching between portrait and landscape.
Because it mounts to the glass or dash surface rather than the screen bezel, this option works identically across every CT5 generation, from the original 10-inch dash to the redesigned 33-inch display. It is the simplest choice for anyone who wants maximum holding strength and full flexibility over placement, and who does not want to give up any vent airflow at all.
Best Universal Vent Mount for a Factory-Matched Look: andobil Car Mount Pro
The andobil Car Mount Pro is another vent-clip option, and it stands out for its carbon fiber finish, which blends in better against the CT5’s dark interior trim than a plain plastic mount. It uses a strong magnetic head designed for larger phones and thicker cases, along with a reinforced vent clip built to handle repeated adjustment without loosening over time. Rotation is full 360 degrees, matching the flexibility of the screen-clip options above.
This is a good pick for CT5 owners who want a universal mount that still looks intentional rather than aftermarket, particularly in the Premium Luxury and V-Series trims where interior finish quality is part of the appeal.
Screen-Clip, Vent, or Suction Mount: Which Makes Sense for Your CT5
The right style of Cadillac CT5 phone mount depends mostly on how you use the vehicle day to day. A screen-clip mount places the phone directly beside the touchscreen at eye level, which is ideal if you use navigation constantly and want the map visible without looking away from the road, and it keeps every air vent fully open since nothing attaches to them. The tradeoff is that screen-clip mounts are generation-specific: the 10-inch and 33-inch versions are not interchangeable, so you need to know which display your CT5 has before ordering.
The andobil vent mount works across every CT5 model year and trim without modification, and it installs and removes in seconds. Its only tradeoff is sacrificing a small amount of airflow adjustment from one vent. The TORRAS suction mount skips that tradeoff entirely by attaching to the windshield or dashboard glass instead, so it works across every generation without touching a vent, a bezel, or a screen at all, though it does require enough flat glass or dash surface for the suction base to seat properly.
For most daily commuting, any of the three styles works well; the decision comes down to whether you want the phone right beside the screen, want to preserve full vent airflow, or want the strongest possible hold on the largest available surface.
If you are not sure which screen your CT5 has, the quickest way to check is the shape of the display itself. The 2020 through 2024 CT5 uses a smaller rectangular touchscreen set into a separate dashboard panel, with physical climate controls below it. The 2025 and newer CT5 uses one continuous curved panel that runs from the driver’s gauge cluster across to the passenger side, with climate controls built into the lower portion of that same screen. Matching the mount to the correct generation before ordering avoids a return trip through Amazon’s exchange process.
Frequently Asked Questions About Cadillac CT5 Phone Mounts
Will a 10-inch screen mount fit a 2025 CT5?
No. The 2025 redesign replaced the old screen with a 33-inch curved display, and the bezel shape and clip depth are different. You need the mount built specifically for the 33-inch panel.
Do these mounts block the CT5’s air vents?
The screen-clip mounts do not, since they attach to the touchscreen bezel rather than the vent. The andobil mount attaches to a vent, so they will occupy one vent’s worth of adjustment space.
Are the screen-clip mounts safe for the display?
Yes. Both the Katorn and SKYLOTEC mounts clamp onto the outer bezel edge rather than the glass itself, and neither applies pressure to the touchscreen surface.
Do I need a MagSafe case to use these mounts?
No. All five mounts listed here work with MagSafe-equipped iPhones directly, and each includes a metal plate for non-MagSafe phones and most Android devices.
Does the CT5-V use the same mount as the standard CT5?
Yes, as long as the screen size matches. CT5-V and CT5-V Blackwing trims from 2025 onward share the same 33-inch display as the standard CT5, so the same screen-clip mounts fit.
Can I remove a screen-clip mount without leaving marks?
Yes. Both the Katorn and SKYLOTEC mounts use a spring-tension clip rather than adhesive, so they can be removed and reinstalled without leaving residue or scratches on the bezel.
