Finally, a good cell phone mounting solution
I finally found a cell phone mounting solution for my SN95 that I really like. I bought a Koomis Magnetos universal cd slot smartphone mount from Amazon: Koomis Magnetos
It is designed to mount in the CD slot in the CD deck. It has a powerful magnet on the gimbal. It comes with two thin metal plates, one with adhesive and one without. I have a rubber case on my Samsung Galaxy S3, so I just put both plates inside the rubber case and it holds great. I even tested it with some spirited cornering.
I initially installed it in the CD slot of the stock CD deck, but my knuckle hit the clamp screw when I shifted into reverse. I wasn't happy with that. But then I noticed that I could slide the mount between the top of the radio and the bezel and clamp it:
It does cover the cassette function, but I haven't used that in years. Vertical orientation:
Horizontal orientation:
It's easy to reach around for the HVAC controls.
It works very well with Waze...
