Default C3 cell phone holder recommendation

Just wanted to share this cell phone holder as a good one to use in the tight space that is the C3

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o07_s00_i00

The minuscule customization I had to do to it was, firstly, remove the vent hooks and secondly, attach velcro merging it to black plastic plating next to the shifter. The only obvious downfall of this is not being able to see the position of the shift on an automatic but that should be ingrained in your head.

I'll post a pic when I get a sec.

There are other places you can put it but I'm never going for a ride in your car.

I set mine in the indentation just under the parking break. It seems like it would be a bad place, but it hasn't fallen out yet and I have taken several tight / fast turns.

But thanks for the heads up on the gadget.

Map pocket (the small one) works for me. Phone is low priority for me, and even more so when I'm driving.

I used to do that but mine would always go flying when cutting through a corner or performing a Dukes of Hazzard bridge jump.
