I ordered one of these mounts last year, but never used it until the drive up to Hershey yesterday. Just wanted to mention that it worked great! Even with the phone mounted vertically between the jaws, it never slipped; and the mount held it rock steady. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Definitely worth the money. I don't know if Johannes is still selling the "ancillaries" package anymore, but all the bits you need to assemble one of these is readily available at your local hardware store.

I still have "ancillaries" for the mount. Order instructions in the first message.

Hi Johannes,

I'm putting my kit together. Question:

Instructions say "glue the black joints". I don't see any black joints in the instruction pictures.

Sorry if I'm being dim!

Thanks,


QUOTE(johannes @ Oct 25 2015, 10:46 AM) *

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1- With a small plier, cut and remove all the parts that are shown in red.
Wear safety goggles as parts will jump all over the place.
2- Use a cutter to remove all the excess material.
3- Clean the parts as powder may stick on the surface and in the holes.
You can paint the parts but be carefull to not put too much paint on contact surface of the moving parts.





4- Assemble the parts as shown using 4x m4x12 and 1x m4x15 screws and nuts. Tight the screws gently. Overtighting will bend the parts and damage the plastic thread in the ball joint.
5- Glue the black joints
6- wrap a rubberband as shown on the pictures. A second rubberband is provided as a spare. The two rubberbands can be monted together if clamping force is not enough to maintain small phones.
IMPORTANT: One of the clamps always travels free, the other has to be set up to fit the size of the phone then tightened with the screw.

Those are the black joints that are glued on the claws. You can see them on the pictures (they are not shown on the drawings). Sorry I am french and my english is not always understandable.

That is what I normally do but the metal is cutting/marking my screen protector. I don't have a bulky case cover.

Warren, get one of these when they become available. I love mine. I too used to lay my iPhone in the ashtray but it would fall out during turns or rough roads. They're compact and will fit in your glove box when hot in use. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I have one of the older design that someone can have for shipping costs. I ended up going with a windshiled suction cup mount.

First PM with mailing address...

here's an alternative solution I've employed. The caveat is that the magnet is attached with double stick tape to the dash surface. In my case, I have a dash cover, so I'm not worried about ruining the face of my dash vinyl. 1. Source out a magnetic type mount that pivots. 2. Source out the steel plates that attach to the back of your phone. Both these items were sourced from eBay. The extended dash tray is the support of my phone. Here are the pics
