Best iphone car mount for new VW beetle

trying to figure out what is the best solution for iphone car mount

ProClips is expensive and yuo need to buy two different parts.   I am not driving a brand new car and when I change cars this is a big investment in something that wil only work with VW beetle.
BUT I found the PERFECT SOLUTION aqnd wanted to share with all.
This car mount is adjustable and will work well with the iphone in a case too. It has a low profle and easily removed from car to car too.
It is mountable on windshield or on the dash and that is where I mounted it right in between my two air vents and just above radio on my beetle.  From here it is easily viewiable and accessable tor  my charger & for plugging into car speaker system.
Best thing is the price......under $20 with shipping.  Okay, what is it.....IOTTIE. 
You can view some utube videos of this thing too if you want.   I love mine!

  • Best iPhone Car Mount?

    I really want to mount my iPhone when I'm driving. I currently have a 2006 Audi A3 with the iPod audio connector cable fitted. This works fine with the iPhone too, but I need the iPhone mounted.
    So far I've seen various mounts with suction cups - these are no good for me. Others with vent clips, which could be a possibility, but all of them are ugly and seemingly oversized. Has any company actually designed a car mount specifically for the iPhone yet?

    I came across this post via google and found the Brodit iPhone holder w/cable connection to be EXACTLY what I needed. Unfortunately since I live in the US the only official Broadit supplier in the US currently does not carry the holder w/cable connection but after a quick call to the company, I have put put on their email list to be notified once this becomes available.
    My setup is a 01 Firebird with factory Monsoon radio and a product from USA-Spec that integrates perfectly with my iPhone. I still get to keep my steering wheel controls and it charges the phone as well. The best part is that I have not noticed any interference with my speakers like I do with my home theater setup.
    It also comes with an extra AUX input so if a friend with another mp3 player rides with me we can also listen to his music as well.
    Hope this helps

  • Good iphone car mount that works with case?

    I need a car mount for my iPhone so that I can use the phone's GPS app. I've looked around and so far I can only find mounts that work for iPhones without any case.
    I would rather not have to remove the case everytime I got in my car, so are there any recommended mounts out there that work for phones with cases?
    Thanks!

    Griffin makes an FM/lighter mounted model, which has several bottom mounting brackets, to fit several phone models. I tested it out today, but the ipod buttons on the model don't work correctly, and FM was spotty to awful, as always on these type of setups. It did hold my naked cellphone well, and wish it had worked as advertised - cost about $100 at Best Buy.
    Belking has a similar model (about $70 at Best Buy), without the FM transmitter, also on a lighter stalk, which may work, since it grips the top of the phone with a wider clip, made to adapt to case thicknesses, I presume. I have not tried out this model, but may do so, since I have never found a single FM transmitter that works well - too much static, fading in and out, etc.
    Is there anyone who can recommend a lighter mounted (on a flexible stalk) charger for the iphone, that has a stalk long enough to accommodate any rental car, I would very much appreciate it.

  • I travel between countries often for my work.  What is the best iphone to use for international calling at a reasonable cost?

    All six Uk carriers carry the iPhone officially and micro sims are very common therefore
    PAYG is very common in UK every carrier offers a number of packages but all commitment free

  • Best car mount for iPhone WITH case

    ive tried car mounts in the past and some worked fine...until I got a case for my iphone. lots of mounts have custom fitting so that it will fit the naked iphone just fine, but i need one that works with my case on it. so i guess just an adjustable one would be good...being able to turn it to landscape would be nice as well. anyone have suggestions?

    yeah but this is a custom holder for a "snug" fit...which is my problem. snug fit = doesn't fit if you have a case around your iphone. so i need one thats adjustable. im looking on amazon now and some of the reviews are so-so...so i was just wondering if there was a definitive iphone case out there.

  • IPhone Car Mount

    Hey everyone!
    Ok before you answer please read my post carefully because i need exactly what im asking. I am looking for a mount for my iphone in the car. I dont want to have to mount it and then plug the cable in the bottom-more like a dock, put in and your done. The tomtom one does that but here is where i gets picky. I have an ipod cable that i installed in the back of my 2010 honda accord coupe (just got it i turn 17 and take my test on dec 7thhh!!!) so i need a dock with a 30pin in connecter on the back, not a 3.5 mm like the tomtom so i can plug the car cable into it. Basicaly im looking for the Apple iPhone dock with that outlet on the back, but for a car. Thanks guys in advance for any help!

    I had the same issue and question regarding integrating my iPhone into my car. I went looking for a solution and after several weeks of purchasing items, testing, and returning I feel I have the best setup for my needs. This may help you on your endeavor ...
    I ended up purchasing the USA-SPEC Ipod interface for my 2007 Honda Civic. They have many BMW models so check here:
    USA-SPEC Ipod Interface
    I then endedup purchasing the ProClipUSA iPhone holster specific to the USA-SPEC cable:
    Item No. 915219 - Padded Holder with Tilt Swivel for Cable Attachment
    ProClipUSA Holster
    This is perfect because the USASPEC interface cable screws into the ProClipUSA holster and is very solid. I jump in the car, holster the iPhone and I am gone. When I leave I just slide it out ... no clips or locks to worry about (slide in slide out). This was the best method I found since you can customize the installation to fit your car and your requirements.
    The one down side for someone would be the ProClip is designed to securly hold the iPhone without a sleeve or cover or other clip/holster device. You will need to remove your iPhone's sleeve or cover in order to holster the iPhone since the specs of the ProClip are exact (which makes for a very secure & solid hold during driving). They have other models that are adjustable however they do not allow for the cable to be screwed into the base to act as a single solid unit. This was fine for me since do not have a sleeve or leather holster/clip and I only use the Invisible Shield.
    As a side note I purchased the Parrot 3100 Bluetooth for my honda and it too is integrated into my stereo. Both work flawlessly.

  • Phone Car Mounts for Frequent Traveler / Rental?

    http://www.proclipusa.com

    I travel quite a bit for work and have been looking around for a car mount that can be transferred to different rental vehicles. During a busy month, I might be in a different vehicle each week (more than some, definitely less than the hardcore traveler). Just wanted to ping the forum to see what others in this situation do. I can't be the first one with this issue.I've been playing around with different configurations and was wondering what others were using. I grabbedthis inexpensive magnetic mountwhen it was on special last week, and it seems fine except that I don'twant to stick a magnet to my phone and don't use a case.Possible solution: use aneasily removable caseon the road. Any suggestions here? Maybe silicone that can beeasily popped on and off when I get in the car? Then stick the magnet to the inside of that. Maybe.Just saw...

  • Sturdy  iPhone 4 mount for resonable price?

    Hi everyone,
    Springs coming around the corner and I would love to find myself a nice mount so I can use my phone as a GPS and record myself driving.
    I've seen some mounts here and there but I would like to get someone's opinion before I buy anything.
    So if you know of any good dash/window mounts for a reasonable price just post a link below.
    One of the key things that I need is the ability to record while driving and it needs to hold the phone very well or else the video will look shaky.
    Also, it doesn't need to have any special features such as built in mics, charging capabilities, etc.
    Thanks Everyone!

    You were lied to by the reseller, who do not appear to be an authorized vendor for the iPhone in Mexico. Only the Apple Store, Movistar and Telcel are authorized vendors, so unless iShop is an authorized agent for one of the two carriers, you purchased an iPhone whose actual source is unknown. Whether or not iShop is authorized, though, iPhones are not sold unlocked in Mexico and neither Movistar nor Telcel provide unlocking services, so what you were told is untrue.
    Sorry, but there's nothing Apple or any of us (your fellow users) here can do to help in this matter. You will need to contact iShop and take this issue up with them.
    Good luck.

  • Best ipad car mount

    can anyone recommend an ipad 3 car mount?

    This is my favorite stand.
    http://www.arkon.com/iPad_accessories/iPad_stand.html
    What I like about it is the way it folds up. With practice you can snap it from fully open to fully shut, and stuff it in a shoulder-bag (or whatever you're using to carry your iPad in), in a flash, with just one hand. It's light, clicks to hold the iPad at nearly any angle from vertical to around 50 degrees off vertical, and has very soft padding on all the right spots so that you don't have to worry about it scratching the iPad or somebody's expensive table top.
    The downside is it's plastic. So it's not going to last forever, or win points for adding a touch of elegance to the room, but for twenty bucks a pop I'm happy with it.
    Can't vouch for any of the other stands they make, like the ones for the car, haven't tried any of them yet.

  • Vesa Mount for New 27" iMac, does it exist?

    Hi,
    Has anyone found a solution for mounting the new 27" iMac? The Vesa mount apparently doesn't fit the new computer.
    Thanks!

    I found this but I don't have confirmation that it works, nor can I find out how to dissassemble my iMac to do so:

  • Best in-car speakerphone for iPhone

    Can anyone tell me what is the very best Bluetooth in-car speakerphone available?  Jabra Journey is awful to access Siri and breaks up the reception, and Parrot Minikit Neo is tinny sounding for both parties on iPhone 5.  So what in-car speaker system is truly giving some decent fidelity for both parties during a phone conversation?  Please share your experiences with us.
    Thanks!

    As you don't mention the rather important info on where you are in the world (this is a WW forum )
    This is a favourite in UK which I know many have fitted in Z4s

  • IPhone Car Cradle for Audi

    Just spoke to Audi and they are only just starting to design and produce the cradle for the new iPhone
    I asked why and they told me that Apple refused to release details in advance so they knew when we did.
    Crazy really when you think about it, iPhone is the leading phone for business and most of us use them in the car.
    I for one will not be buying an iPhone 5 until the car cradle is available, I'm told this could be at least 8 months away at best.....

    Frustrating isn't it!!
    What I have done is use the USB cable from AMI and plugged my iPhone 5 USB charging cable in.  Not ideal but its a short term solution to charge your phone whilst on the move until the cradle becomes available.

  • Best iPhone Sat Nav for light use

    I have to change cars this week, my current car has intergrated SatNav, new one won't.
    So was thinking of getting a Sat Nav app for my iPhone 4. I currently have N-Drive but now can't find it on the app store. Is this good enough for me?
    I would say that I only use it once in a while really, not heavy and everyday use. I've had Tom Toms and they see fine, but they are £50 for UK map only. Co-pilot is £20 big difference.
    I like POIs as often go for trips with family, Co-pilot doesn't seem to allow you to load your own though?
    Is map share on Tom Tom whereby it updates maps for corrections from users often? I think TT allows own POIs to eg from Pocketgpsworld?
    I also for the few occasions like speed camera database, which I believe Co-pilot and TT do.
    So any others? What are they all like as an expeience on a relatively small screen (integrated one was 6" screen)
    Cheers

    Motion X GPS Drive app for .99 cents (US). Cheap, excellent, and only pay as you need it for the data which would be IDEAL for your use. I'm like you. Just need it once in a while.

  • Best piece of advice for "New to COLOR"...

    Sort of like a position statement:
    I have been monitoring this forum since it started, having used FT for a bit more than a year now... and having been a dedicated daVinci/telecine colorist for 13 years...and an on-line editor for nearly 20 years before that.
    Best piece of advice I can offer to new users of COLOR is:
    (Drum Roll) Read the Manual! (Cymbal crash!)
    NB: It's good. My compliments to the writer (who is known to the TIG).
    So many queries have been posted here that are answered right there in print -- it depresses me to think that maybe Apple are quite right not to include it as a physical article, as so few apparently can afford to peruse it. Even available as a pdf than can be queried on the spot...
    Count yourselves extremely fortunate, spoiled, in fact. There was NO MANUAL for Final Touch (to speak of) and less than a handful of people who actually knew what they were doing.
    This is a very complex application dedicated to an enormously subtle and exacting task, and the number of ways that it can be used and abused is evidenced by the number of 'bugs' that are being complained about.
    Color correction, or grading, is very unlike editing, to voice an opinion, having done both at length. Refer to that "Men Vs. Women" gag panel, where men are represented by an "on/off" switch and women are this ridiculously complicated array of knobs, wheels, dials, meters, multi-position switches, etc. On the other hand, though... I would have no use for "UNDO".... never had it in daVinci-land... don't miss it. But I use it extensively in Final Cut. There you go. Use the active memories, grade bins, room setting bins... There are just TOO MANY shadings of meaning that go into a grade that can be accomodated with DO/UNDO... and besides... BE DELIBERATE!
    Happy to join the forum... Where possible I will answer queries with a "page number", and hope that it will be a better learning experience. But I accept that that will only apply to operations, and not colour grading itself. There is no manual for that, although there are books that discuss it. Easier to map human emotions on a quantitative basis. Even Goethe gave up on it.

    I would
    have no use for "UNDO".... never had it in
    daVinci-land... don't miss it.
    I'll use basemem or original mem as my undo on the 2k+. It's a sledge hammer and not nearly as graceful as command-z but it will work.
    Regarding the writer of the manual, Alexis van Hurkman has published an excellent text on color enhancement/correction http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Pro-Training-Encyclopedia-Correction/dp/0321432312/r ef=pdbbs_sr1/104-2640225-5516717?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1182436900&sr=8-1
    I had the pleasure of meeting him at NAB and getting a personal demo of Color at one of the Apple pods.
    Nice post, Joe, nice post.
