Cell Phone Holder

what cell phone holders are cool? I want one that I can put in the holder really quickly, but have it hold it tight (like i can do 60mph turns and still be in tact).

i don't think anything will remain still inside the car if you do a turn at 60 mph...

but in my 3rd gen, my phone fits nicely in that little space where the door handle is (yea kinda ghetto but it works)

I would purchase a hands free kit for your car and then get the PanaVise®Custom Indash Mounts from http://www.ebkwireless.com/cellphone_holders.html#idm. This will give you a custom look.

It depends on the phone. Motorola Startac phones and similar size other cell phones fit right in the open ashtray, as if it were made for them. Pull out ashtray inards if needed.

Also, some hands-free holders that plug in and effectively mount into the lighter socket work well also, but again, the smaller phones work best.

Re: Re: Cell Phone Holder

I put Samsung in the ashtray, but i also stick some cloth material in the ashtray to prevent from scratch and the rattle sound.
