Great mounting solution for the iPhone,
A few weeks ago I was looking for a mounting solution for my iPhone in my Dodge truck, and was intrigued by the description and reviews I saw of this one. A few days later, it arrived & I began experimenting with different ways to mount it. The more ways I tried, the more I realized how versatile of a mount this is. My mounting location of choice was the overhanging lip of the dashboard, above and to the right of the steering wheel. However, the dash is composed of sort of rippled, patterned plastic, and I seriously doubted that I could get any kind of suction cup mount to work.
Amazingly, the “Smart Pad” that comes with this mount solves this problem perfectly, although it is not very well described in the enclosed instructions. The Smart Pad is simply a tacky, very soft rubber-like disc, which is placed between a non-uniform mounting surface, and the suction cup mount. Somehow, by applying suction against it from the suction cup mount side, the soft surface against the non-uniform mounting surface conforms to that surface and maintains suction against it. Once I figured this out, I successfully managed to mount my iPhone just above and to the right of steering wheel. I set it up so that it was easily visible while driving, got good GPS reception through the windshield, and was easily touched from my right hand, even while holding on to the steering wheel.
But, how well would it hang on to the overhanging lip, and how long would it stay? The true test came right away: a drive from from Arizona to Alaska via the Alaska Highway – four days of normal road vibration, followed by about two days of rough roads with potholes, and frostheaves. The result: it didn’t come off even once. I had to worry about mosquitoes, shifting trailer loads, and high gas prices. But never about my iPhone coming loose.
A couple of weeks later, it continues to hang on tightly. No longer do I have to fumble around with my iPhone to change songs, or try to wrestle it out from in between the seats, where it’s slid into on a corner.
Overall, a convenient mounting option for the iPhone that is versatile, well-made, and easy to use.

Good and sturdy,
This product works great and holds on the dash nice and sturdy as I’m pressing the screen. One drawback is my wife’s phone, which has a rubber case does not fit in this holder. I’m going to have to buy her another style that adapts to wider/taller sizes to include the case. I don’t have a case, so this works great for me. I like that it is adjustable to direct the phone right toward me while driving. With it on the dash, my eyes are closer to the road, reducing my risk.

Great product!,
I was looking for a iPhone mount that was solid and would not vibrate so it could be used for data aq for running my car on the track and autocross. This mount is quite solid when mounted with lots of adjustment in every direction. My C5 Z06 has a very steep windshield and it has plenty of adjustment mounted in the center. Also mounts well in the corner near the A pillar in my truck.
Overall, very pleased, especially for the price!
David
