Anybody installed a brodit PDA mount and if so have you any picutres. I would like to see what it is like before I order one. I had one in my 330i but I'm now worried I will block my view of the iDrive if I get the center mount. Anybody got any thought on this ?

I'd say go with www.proclipusa.com instead, I have two mounts from them for my iPod and my Treo, but I notice that you're not in the USA. Oh well.

I think proclip is the US distributor or the brodit products -- they're one and the same, aren't they?

Yeah, Brodit is the Holder and pro-clip is the mounting. I believe they are the same company. Certainly if you go to www.brodit.com they list all the pro-clips there.

I suggest you get a nice leather phone console and mount the Brodit PDA mount on there. I have done that and it looks good.

Ignition power from underneath the dashboard. It's permanently wired ofcourse.
