Phone, Tablet and GPS Mounts for an Audi S5

The Audi S5 has a great interior but that giant display presents a challenge in finding good mounting locations.  Let take a look and see what we can do with our phones, tablets and GPS devices. The Audi S5 Mounting Discussion We previously evaluated mounts for an Audi Q3.  That was a bit of a challenge given the smaller vehicle size but the Audi Q8 made was much easier.  The Audi S5 falls somewhere in the middle. Our typical interior photo of the vehicle accompanies this article.  The large console can be seen near the top of the photo.  This … Read more

Hyundai Kona Phone, GPS and Tablet Mounts

The Hyundai Kona is a sub-compact SUV that’s fairly easy to find a good mount location.  You can even mount a small tablet in the proper location. We previously looked at a Hyundai Santa Fe and Hyundai Tucson.  The larger Santa Fe was one of the more difficult vehicles to mount a device and the Tucson was somewhat easier.  The Hyundai Kona is closer to the Tucson in terms of easy mounting.

Phone and GPS Mounts for the Lexus RC 300 and RC 350

The Lexus RC 300 and RC 350 has an upscale interior with a few mounting opportunities.  We’re going to look at the best mounting locations for this vehicle.

This was not as easy as initially thought.  The Subaru Impreza works with a lot of mounts but there are several locations that will not work well.  Let’s look at our options. Our usual photo of the interior accompanies this article.  It has vertical vents.  That excludes a lot of mounts that only work on horizontal vents.  It’s got a small secondary console area.  Not sure why but could limit dash mounts.  The cup holders are placed too far back to be of any use.  It’s got a CD Player.  It’s got a windshield.  So we have two good locations … Read more

Phone and GPS Mounts for a Chevy Camaro

To no surprise, the Chevy Camaro is a real challenge to mount a phone, GPS or tablet.  It has a very narrow interior with a lot of curves where there shouldn’t be curves (at least for mounting purposes).  While we are able to recommend a few good mounts for a phone or GPS, you can forget about a tablet.  There is no place to safely mount a tablet in a Ford Mustang. We thought the Ford Mustang was difficult to find good mount locations.  This is even worse. Our usual photo of the interior of the vehicle accompanies this article.  … Read more
