What is a good smartphone-mounting-system and where is a good place to install it?
Hi friends. Just upgraded to a 2010 F150 XLT. I love the truck and I'm trying to figure out where to mount my huge Nexus 6 smartphone (6" screen). It is in a cover so any aftermarket system would work. I need to be able to use maps, spotify etc while driving so it has to be within reach.
Whats a good product and where did you mount it?
Pictures are very welcome!
Thanks and have a great weekend.

has been great! slides into the cd slot and holds pretty well. I have an iphone6 though, left the magnetic inside my phone case - didnt need to peel and stick. It has never fallen off while driving or sudden pot holes.
PLUS who uses cd's anymore!

I have this and love it. Simple and easy and works great. It works with a magnet inside your case (between the case and the phone). You can use any case. Or, if you want, the magnet has a sticky side and you can just stick it to your phone.

I have this in our Expy and F150. I use a iphone 6 and wifey has a Galaxy Note and it holds either one fine. She has an otter box on hers, and it still works well with the case.
I was concerned about a magnet and battery drain, but that must be a "wive's tale". Also was concerned about it dropping the phone, but my F150 manages to find every bump in every road and it has not dropped yet.
Plus, it was $15. I was using some huge contraption with a suction cup that was $25 and it was ridiculous.
I also use my cd player because it has mp3 tunes on it and I have too many issues with keeping my usb recognized and defaulting, so cd type was not an option for me

C'mon, you can't have a 6" phone blocking one of your air vents down here in FL (looks like that is how the Logitech works).
removal of 3m adhesive when the truck changes hands = Goo Gone.
Yes Tampa - right across the bridge.
