Cell Phone Mount

[Golfhacker64]

Can anyone suggest a good cell phone mount for my 2015 Silverado 2500?  With the texture on the dash pad, suction cups won’t hold and there really isn’t a flat space on the dash itself.  I prefer not to mount it to the windshield, NJ is funny about that.

www.proclipusa.com vehicle specific mounts. I'm using the driver side console mount in my 2016 1500.

Retrofit HMI 2.5 so you can have Android Auto / CarPlay.  Plug directly into USB, use head unit to control what you need.  No reason to have a mount in these trucks.

I have a 2016 with Android Auto and I use it religiously. I have a Proclip USA center console mount on the driver's side with a short USB C cable. Every time I get in I drop my phone in the mount and connect the cord. Everything is neat and in its place and at a fingers touch if I need something beyond what AA offers. So I agree that AA and CP are great but I don't think they negate the need for a mount.

That's what the rubber ridged thing in the center console is for.  I have a short USB-C cord  that plugs in, it sits in the rubber thing and doesn't move.  GM put it there for a reason so you wouldn't need a mount.

They also gave us a wireless charger that hardly fits any phone made in the last 4 years and no AA or CP wireless support. I realize what the ridges are for. If you read my build thread you'll see I made a custom mount with the USB C connector extending up through the ridges to basically dock my phone every time I got in but ultimately it wasn't stable enough. I found even placing my phone on its side to be cumbersome and to use the phone required disconnecting if you used a short cable which kills AA or CP. With the mount I get the best of both worlds. Easy access to the phone and AA. Again, I don't disagree about using AA and CP but the person asked for mount recommendations and I don't agree that using AA or CP eliminates the need for a mount not to mention the hundreds to thousand plus dollars it would cost them to get a new HMI programmed just to get to the point of having AA and CP as an option.
