Car Mount

---

Anyone found a decent car mount for the wizard

I need one for satnav. I've seen one for about £45 that has a built in speaker etc - don't really need that

Would be interesting to hear (and see pics) of what people are using

Hi Hays,

Have you considered the Brodit holder solution?

Have a look (link below) or drop me a message and I will be happy to advise (Wizard listed either as Xda Minis or MDA vario)

you have the choice of passive holders, active holders charged by cig lighter or permanent fixed power version also for hidden cables etc. All attach onto a proclip mount that is specific to your vehicle, in a variety of positions on your dashboard.

Hope that helps,

Cheers, Bryson

That kit looks very good quality - seems quite expensive though !!

I use different cars at work, so I need something that can be moved easily. Could I use the holder with a different mount, ie perhaps a vent mount (that's not too hard to move from car to car) or failing that a suction mount (not too keen on a suction mount due to the smaller display of the mini s )

Was thinking of this

Bryson, I'm after a active holder with no cable attached, so that I can add a "Y"-type lighter plug cable that will charge both my Qtek 9100 and my Bluetooth GPS mouse. (I had a similar one for my h6340, and want to stay with Brodit.)

Is Brodit developing such a holder design soon?

Hi,

Yeah there are 2 available from Brodit, codes 848650 & 848655 (Called passives so you can insert your cable as mentioned)

Check this link and scroll down past the Xda Exec holders to the Mda Vario/Xda Mini S/ Qtek 9100 holders

Hope that helps, take care, Thanks!

Hello,
I got mine shiped from the US to Germany within 2 weeks from www.thepocketsolution.com which have a fast feedback and good customer support in general. The mount device works perfectly well as expected.

I got the brodit clip and horizontal holder for my XDA Mini S from dsldevelopments, and am very happy with both the clip and the service!

I tried one of those cheap ebay mounts that clips onto the airvent but thay was useless and moved all over the place. The brodit clip goes over my S60's vent perfectly and is very solid.

The only thing I would suggest is instead of using the supplied screws to attach the holder to the mount - use velcro. I did this on mine so that I can quickly remove the holder and put it in the glove box. Good for security as passers by cant see I have a satnav mount and wont try breaking in to see if its in the glovebox!

Hi,

Instead of velcro, Brodit make a 'Moveclip', one part fits on the back of the holder, the female (2 supplied for x2 proclips) part fits onto the proclip, and both parts slide together, giving an very strong fix, and also the flexibilty of being able to move a holder between 2 vehicles with proclips/gooseneck installed. (also serves the same purpose of being able to remove the holder from sight to stop the thieves!)

Hope that helps, heres a link:

instead of a car mount I did something different. I just bought myself a nice case for the mda vario (e.g. noreve, piel frama). These cases are made of leather, and therefore they have good grip.

I just lay the case on the kilometer radial in front of me, and it stays there. Even in sharp corners.

The advantages are: cheap as you don't need a car mount and thief protection as there is no car mount visible.
