Haha! Absolute modding!

Yeah it's a tiny thing but very practical and I have needed one for a long time already.
I don't have a navi in my car but have navi instead in my cellphone. It works marvellous (for me) and has helped me through odd towns and places .
The phone just has been on the seat next to me or in my lap. I've been searching for a holder that can be snapped on without drilling holes into the dash, and I found it at last.

The manufacturer is a Swedish Brodit. They have plenty of different holders for different kind of gadgets ! Check them here.

So here it is, in all its glory :

- Parts. The clip (left) is sold separataly and several different holders can be attacahed to it.


- Baseplate of the holder attached


- You can tilt the holder in any position you want to


- The clip is just pushed in to trim










I recommend Brodit to anyone who wants a snap-in holder for his gadget!
Too bad I don't have a bluetooth in my car .

What do you think?

ps. My modding SPREE will continue soon!

Sorry Anzafin, but that will block the air to your face in a hot afternoon.

Black car and all.

In a car with automatic transmission, you always have a hand(s) free

If that happens, I can move the holder on the right or in the middle!

After the car has been in the sun for some hours you need all the three ventilators
