Description
This is a two-part 3D-printable holder that accepts the original TomTom magnetic car mount (the small magnetic plate that comes with the Tom device) and clamps onto a car air vent. It lets you avoid sticking the magnetic base to your dashboard. The two parts join with a printed thread — you can screw them together for adjustment and glue them for a permanent assembly.
