Gotham holder is the most common solution. Also, can be modified to mount in cigarette lighter socket: link.

That's a really clean install, good job . I may do the same thing with the serial connector on the kick panel.

I just use some velcro, it does melt in the heat though, so my buddy found some type of velcro that didnt easily melt (the adhesive).

How do you get them to fit in the center console? Like where the change holder goes? I've seen that a few times. Sorry for thread jacking!

I used velcro, but I am not very happy with it. I will use some kind of adaptor to hold the Commander at the cigarette place.

...cheap/old phone holder from Radio Shack. I like being able to adjust it to different positions if the sun is glaring off the screen or something.

I got this from someone on the forums I believe it is the Gotham Holder?



Works perfect and is aimed at driver for easy viewing.
