Whazza22 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has ever mounted an iPod/iPhone charging dock to the empty cubby hole (for sat nav). Would like to mount my iphone there rather than on the windscreen as I use it for sat nav aswell. Would obviously need a supply taken to it, possible off the headunit. Cheers 👠Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Not an iPhone cradle but a satnav unit, you can get a cable up through there easily, it's easier from the passenger side iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whazza22 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Ah right cool, Can you get ones that stick to the back if the cubby hole as my sat nav holder doesn't stick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubapics Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 How about fitting the new iPad mini in there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddcboyle Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) If your looking at a phone/ipod holder, dont go drilling into the cubby hole as their a fair bit to replace. This is a few photos of what ive got, i used it in focus for 2years and in my zed since november. Phone never moves, no drilling or anything needed. This is it inside the car This is it removed (its attached to the zeds little removable rubber thing by double sided tape which comes off with bit of lighter fluid once ur trying to sell car) And a photo from the back, the angle is adjustable, so it can lay flat if you want to put your wallet in there, or at angle if you want to use satnav. Phone will not budge when its on this. No damage to standard zed parts. Cubby hole closes too. The only downfall is that you cant place it height ways, but it seems every phone nowadays can work satnav sideways Heres link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Sat-Nav-Grip-iPhone-Mobile-Phone-Holder-Dashboard-Stand-/190686458901?pt=UK_Holders_Mounts&hash=item2c65cc7415 Power supply, ive used a charger going from the passenger side lighter slot to wire over Hope this helps Edited November 13, 2012 by ddcboyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whazza22 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Ideal! Thanks for that, very well explained and detailed 👠That's my next purchase then Quick question, where is the passenger cigarette lighter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddcboyle Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) Not sure if their varied, but if u have a look under the passengers front bit (where a glove box normally is, but half way down to the right), where your right knee is, theres a flip out thing. In there. Let me know if its not there, i presumed it was OEM Edited November 13, 2012 by ddcboyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whazza22 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Ok will have a look tomorrow in daylight. Mine is an import so maybe different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Just drill into the bottom of the cubby and when you remove it put the little rubber mat over the holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
