Description
I wanted a neater way to hold my phone with my magsafe charger in my VW T4, without having to use a vent. We have the blanks in the dashboard, so why not use them?
I played around with using clips to keep them in place, though through trial and error (and hot weather) it turned out to make the most sense to bolt it in, that way the phone stays secure.
I'd still recommend printing in PETG - else the model is likely to deform in the summer heat.
You'll need two m3 bolts and nuts - when applying id recommend putting a piece of tape over the nuts after you've put them in the bottom plate, then carefully place the back plate through the dash and put the ball plate through the front. then just screw the two together.
