Just saw this pic from the compass yellow thread. Looks like they are using a suction cup phone holder on the windshield. You can get this on Amazon.I'm looking at this dash and it looks like a disaster for mounting a phone. Any ideas on the best way to do this?
Just make sure to send your guide pics of how dumb your phone mount looks in your brand new vehicle.If only there was software for cars that made it so you could use the car’s touchscreen to interact with your phone…. Oh wait
Mounts like that are technically illegal in some States.Just saw this pic from the compass yellow thread. Looks like they are using a suction cup phone holder on the windshield. You can get this on Amazon.
This 100%I agree that mounting your phone on the windshield is dangerous, and I would not promote doing so.
That said, there seems to be Rivian employees who seem to think they need a way to mount their cell phone. Why is the phone mounted on the windshield in the picture? And if they think mounting a phone is needed, why didn’t they come up with a better solution?
WeatherTech makes CupFones, but that wouldn’t be helpful since there are only two cup holders.
It would work great. However, I can barely see at all out of my left eye so it's a real challenge to get short term range over there. It's also harder to tap it if needed. Really need it on the right sidePerhaps you could use something like a MagBak ( Magnetic Phone Accessories | MagBak ) and put it on the left side of the steering wheel. I use this in my Yukon and it works great. Very stable and easy to use. It only needs a tiny space for the magnet to adhere to the dash and it looks like there might be space on the left side. Here is an old dash picture with the area circled.
