BodyGlove instead of dash mount or window mount

---

I was discussing this in another thread and thought it should be in its own so the pictures would not be lost in a haystack of info. I consider the bodyglove to be the best accessory for the G1

Most people are buying dash mounts or windshield mounts for their G1. I found them big and bulky. Plus the suction cup will leave a mark on your window which is what thieves look for.

I bought the bodyglove about 6 months ago and just recently realized I could clip it to my rear view mirror.

I've attached some pictures to show how clean your dash view is when attaching to rear view mirror.

Also pictures of it hanging on my laptop while charging.

The phone is nice and close for you to read. I bought co-pilot and it works great. Works just like tom tom or garmin. Easy to read streets and hear turn by turn directions.

Feels Safer since its under the rear view mirror. Which means you aren't looking at the dash when your driving. Your actually looking at the road and rear window. GPS picks up perfectly under the rear view mirror too.

And bodyglove is rubberized. I've dropped the phone a couple of times and it just bounces!

Note: This will probably not work on a fat rear view mirror that has bluetooth or compass or temperature or some other fancy thing. You need to have a thin spot on the mirror to clip it to. Normally the spot where the tab sits in the middle at the bottom of the mirror. If you really like this idea, you can replace your fancy rear view mirror with a standard one that has the flip tab in the middle bottom. Just depends on what you use most.

I kinda like it, but i'm not so sure about the way it looks, okay its protected and all, but less atractive/sexy.

I dtill dont know what i will use, the pocket that came with it is also nice and you can pull it out very fast.

I ordered myself 1.
I dropped my phone a few days ago, and it could only found 1 network (not mine) and ik could not charge the battery anymore.
Wish i had one so it would not be broke now.

30$ or 20€ to be delivered @ home.
I think i like it, i can attach it to to my rearview mirror i think. thanx for the tip !

Well worth the $30 investment for all the things you can use it for. It has has a kickstand on the clip that pulls out so you can stand it. I didn't take a picture of it. I normally don't use the kickstand, because I can turn it sideways and it stands perfectly using the clip.

Multiple uses. I'll have to post those pictures later.

T-Mobile finally came out with their own version of the Body Glove holder. One has the same design, minus the textured outer shell, and the soft inner linning. Covers all the same parts though, and hooks on your belt. I think it swivles too. They also have a holster, which is just one piece that clips to you belt, and which the G1 just slides in and out of. They both go for $19.99, which is about $12 less than the Body Glove.

I prefer the rubber texture on the bodyglove. I've dropped it a couple of times and no damage. I have not seen the tmobile case, is it hard?

You can get the bodyglove off of amazon for less than $15 which includes shipping.

Do you have a link to that skin ?

I bought it from here as well and I like the case alot. I went through 3 cases. The cheap plastic ones. ( white, clear and black) Though they werent that bad (in the beginning) and then starting breaking down a little. But thanks TS, I didnt even think about using it on the mirror like that, lol!

And yes, it fits perfectly to the rear view mirror !

I just love it, and it looks a lot better in real then on pictures.

A must buy if you ask me !
