I discovered a company called Krusell, which is a fine leather manufacturer out of Sweden. They have a line of accessories called Multidapt, which essentially allows you to use the leather case on your phone and mount it to a number of different things, including belt, backpack strap, and, best of all, car windshield (or car dashboard). I was trying to figure out what would be best for mounting options in my car, but I didn't want something permanent, as my car is only a temp. The accessory to mount to your windshield is called the Krusell Windshield Holder, and is about $15 shipped. You need to also purchase the Mogul leather case or the Multidapt accessory to hook the two of them up.
I'll take some pics if you guys wanna see!
Pics would be great thanks! anyway to hide the charging cable with this setup?
Yes, please post pics
Here's a link. http://www.sfplanet.com/product/50132/Krusell_Windshield_Holder__Mount_50132.html
Good price at $11.95 also.
I use a PDAir aluminium case ($28) and its associated car mount ($12):

With two separate orders made around the holidays it took ~2.5 weeks for the items to arrive to BC.
Back to a Palm V in a Rhinoskin, I've always kept my PDAs in metal cases.
Can you post up some pics of your mogul in its leather case attached the windshield mount
I just use a generic car mount and it works fine... the only thing that worries me is that the back of the phone gets kind of hot... something with some ventilation would be awesome.

I was totally thinking of buying this mount! Does anyone have it? I am wondering if it has a permanent mounting option. I have a Pro.Fit mounting bracket in my car and would love for it to be able to attach to that!
Doesn't seem like this really belongs in the upgrade forum.
I have this mount and love it. The landscape swiveling is awesome to use your keyboard for keyboard shortcuts(never for txting or emailing while driving obviously, grin). Sound quality is great from the audio out into my aux in on my car. I use it for mp3's, gps etc and it works great. I posted some pics of my install in another thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=367137

That's pretty much identical to what I use.
It works fine, but it's got 2 downsides....
1. The back of the phone gets hot in it.. I'm sure that's not a really good thing.
2. The back of the mount blocks the speaker, so voice directions are muffled. If your car stereo has an auxilary input, problem solved... my car doesn't.
I know theres a thread on the Touch pro 2 Car mount but i dont know if any of those mounts work for the Tilt 2. I'm looking for something that fits nice and clips to the vent sturdy and also can rotate to landscape. I searched and searched and googled and cant find anything remotely good.
I bought a universal one but it was garbage
I know Proclip / brodit makes great car mounts but i cant justify paying 70 bucks for a car mount. ( 35 for the mount and 30 for the car mount part )
Sorry for making a new thread for this but i see a ton for the Touch pro 2 and still dont know if those will work with the tilt 2. Thanks for the help in advance

dash mount
Best one I've found.... I hate Best Buy but they were the only ones in town with a decent mount. It was 24.99, a little more than I wanted to spend, but well worth it.

These days it seems like you're pulling teeth in terms of getting accessory developers to develop accessories for any non-iPod/iPhone devices...
This is the Bets one I found till now - HERE
most adjustable
I just ordered this one for a Tilt2. For $13 delivered it doesn't look to bad. I don't believe the TP2 exact fit ones will work with a Tilt2. I would be nice if one came out soon.
Looks like my usual vendor, ProClip USA is developing one, but it is not ready yet. Check them out at:
http://www.proclipusa.com/
I've looked at the ProClip. It looks pretty good. The problem is I just can't see spending close to $80 for one. I upgrade phones every 12-16 months Hell, I only spent $99 delivered for my Tilt2...

I did it here.
Again I'm weary of TP2 exact fit holders. That one is labeled for T7373, the Tilt2 is T7377. There is a small size difference. It does look decent though.
I drive a GMC Sierra and have been looking for a dash or vent mount. A windshield mount puts the phone out of arms reach.

Actually this one is available. I've already got one in my truck for my Tilt 2.
be VERY careful with vent mounts. Your AC can make your phone cold causing it to condensate when you exit the vehicle and walk around outside ESP in high humidity areas thus voiding your warranty
proclip
i bought the proclip car kit for the tilt. now i have the tilt2.
the car mount fits great, good location. i agree it is expensive, but replacing the phone holder for the tilt2 is half the cost. still great fit and location.

igrip
i have the igrip custom mount for my fuze, i like it a lot, and the mount detaches from the goose neck. they make several mount options that can connect to the custom clip. the have one for my mountain bike, so i can attach it on the trails and use some of the gps features with a program i downloaded here on xda. They also have some more solid mounts that dont move around as much as the goose neck. I am getting a tilt 2 real soon, as soon as my contract is up for upgrade... (next week).. would love to find a custom clip for it that works with the igrip mounting options, has anyone seen one. i dont see a custom clip for the tilt 2 on their website.

i been looking at this one Car Mount it's adjustable so it might just work.

Check mountguys.com, they have one for an android tablet, looks to be adjustable
I plan on using a sheet of Kydex to form around my gtab and canibalizing an old suction mount to mount it on. Then I can get those little adhesive suction discs and affix it once I find the best location.

honestly i think that the gtab in the car would be pretty damn cool to use, however i think it just MIGHT be an obstruction of view if you guys were to get the windshield mounts for the tab, believe you will def get a few tickets for that from the local cops looking to meet 'quotas'. maybe if there was something where you can dock it say where the lighter is or in the middle console somehow but on the windshield prob isnt the best place for it, just my 2 cents

I agree, big time! I plan on mounting mine lower in my work van. I also plan on "fabricating" some sort of recessed dock type enclosure in my truck. I had plans for a carputer but I think a gtab dock would be way more convenient....and way sweeter!
Hoping to tap the knowledge of the guys at this forum. They build some awesome setups here. I know this isn't for the average person, but I am already half way there in my vehicle.

Bad idea... for my car anyways...
I drive an Evo with 600AWHP and a lots of grip. This thing will not be held by some suction cup.
I am looking to make a bracket of some sort for the center console.

I bought one of these iPad suction cup mounts from some random site on BensBargains.net and use it with a beanbag friction dash mount... on my desk. The setup is just too large and cumbersome to be placed on the dashboard. Not to mention the ball head mechanism never seems to get tight enough to hold the tablet steady when I touch anything on either the extreme left or right of the tab.
I have always used Brodit cradles for all my devices over the last few years. I find them reliable, very strong and easy to put together.
For some reason Brodit havent released a cradle for this device yet - has anyone got any ideas where i can get one that is for vents?
thanks

There are a few on ebay in the $12-15 range and some on Amazon in the $25 range. I just did a search for Samsung 7.7 vent mount.
sorry - for got to mention - i already bought one from ebay - that is the problem - hence my post
the ones on ebay are flimsy, lowsy horrible things...make sure you dont buy one. the ball and socket which allows it to swivel lost its stiffness after about 10 minutes of use and i just took it off. also the connection to the vent is weak at best. the connection to the actual plastic is so weak that when I turned a corner once the thing fell out!
i had a galaxy tab 7 inch and the brodit cradle for that was nice and solid - you would have to tug hard to move it anywhere - also the ball and socket was adjustable by just making the screw tighter

U r a legend! I been checking that site for months and gave up last week!
Always the way!
Hmm I've bought the official car mount already,
and i'm waiting it to arrive...
Just wondering, what's the advantage of car vent compared to car mount?
isnt' carmount more universal? because with this you have to choose clips specific to your car?
Very tempting, the good is that for my car, Dodge Caliber, there two options, the vent and center console, i might go with the center console option
Edit: i went to the US retailer website but they do not have the tab holder listed yet only the one for the original tab, but they do have the vent and center console mount, the mount is $29.99 a bit much and i wonder how much will be for the tab holder.

It's not available in the US on the ProclipUSA website. Didn't know brodit and Proclip were somehow associated. Always bought Proclip, thinking it was designed and made in the USA? Maybe it is.
Whatever the case, I just called Proclip, it will be available in the USA next week, they'll send me an email about it. Can't order it right now.

I agree that Brodit mounts are superb - I got mine - Brodit Passive Car Cradle Holder Tilt Swivel for Samsung Nexus S (#511227) from Amazon UK. It is rock solid.
My Brodit from Proclip arrived Thursday. Its really nice. I originally had a ram mount in my truck for the Motorola xoom. The Proclip is nice but I ordered the console mount instead of the vent mount for Toyota 2005 Tacoma. I'm using the console mount piece as a cable organizer and just bolted the pro clip backing to the Ram mount fitting since the holes matched. I am hoping to post pictures and review soon.

I bought an OSO mount via Amazon after I found the EXO mount on Amazon US. It seems to be the same product. But any of these search terms will pull up a mount that is at least similar to those two. I have mine mounted on the structured plastic dash in the middle of my Smart 451 and it didn't come off yet. And I could only find bery few ratings where people were not satisfied. I got me the mount that comes with something like an extension arm and I'm glad I did. All other mounts on my screen would put the phone too far away to operate and the other mounts that go on the dashbord would place the phone right in the middle of the windscreen and blocking the view. But both, OSO and EXO have different models to chose from.
Thanks Mikegrmn
Looks good.

I'm in the UK. And you're right most of the decent mounts are us made. I only buy the slip grip mounts as they take our phone whilst in a case.
Very good quality and you can buy from them through eBay.

I'd assume so. I didn't try, but from how it holds up on my structured dashboard, a screen shouldn't be a problem. I had tried it on the smoother surface on our kitchen countertop and had problems removing it
The suction cup itself is sticky. This most likely causes that it holds strong on textured surfaces. And the cup is also thicker in material than what I saw on GPS units. The only thing that is, due to the thick material is, that it acts a bit like a suspension damping. So there is a little wiggle room when you touch the device. I'm not sure if it's clear what I want to say, but it doesn't feel like screwed or welded to something. Hope this gets it better across.
