Best magsafe phone mount

[skullandbiscuits]

Hi y'all

I recently purchased the following phone mount for my Audi TT MK2 (https://www.oem-mounts.com/product/audi-tt-mk2-8j-2007-2014), I was wondering what exists out there for an E85 Z4.

I have some long trips palnned in May.

Note:- Must be magsafe

Thank you

I use this on all my cars. It's brilliant.

Installation is simple with a Twist Lock that holds firmly onto most vehicle air vents. Secure Twist Lock. Rare Earth magnets ensure secure hold to smartphone.

Not sure if it's magsafe as I have a Samsung phone, so I have to stick a magnet on the back of my phone, under the case. The magnet is more than strong enough, never had a phone fall off - unlike every other magnetic phone mount I've tried.

What I have currently in my Z4:


It's just a Magsafe mount stuck with a 3M tape. It's been holding great for over a year now.
And it's very cheap on aliexpress.
My tip - use IPA to degrease the surface, WAIT for it to dry off, firmy stick your mount and LEAVE IT ALONE for few hours.
I noticed that when I immediately started using glued mounts these liked to fall off.

My other idea is something I did in my F87 M2:


Once again - aliexpress find. It's a more pemanent option was buing this:

Going to town with a dremel and making an F30 bracket fit F20 dashboard
I would consider doing something very similar retrofitting one of screw holding the radio.

Brodit Proclip with a modified Belkin Magsafe charger. Modified as I dremelled the rear ball mount off, and used double sided tape to tape it to the Proclip (it now mounted somewhat lower than in the pic). It is powered off a switched fuse feeding a USB charger mounted in the glove box, and USB cable running from that to the Magsafe charger.

Thanks all, I think I will go with a Brodit setup.

Personally I use my phone for maps while driving and needed a way to keep it charged while mounted, and I ended up with a Ram Mounts magsafe charging stand. You have to buy the magsafe charger separately but it works fantastically. https://rammount.com/products/ram-b-166-ap-mag-1u. Ended up getting it for my daily as well.
