Default Car Mount: Soundgate M2 quick review w/ pics

I just installed the Soundgate M2 car mount. So far, I'm impressed.
I had been looking for a low profile car mount that would work with any phone case.
I took some pictures of how it looks in the car.

Wow like the sleek look. But how does it stay in place? Im guessing you need some type of clip holder? I personally like my phone naked but man this looks pretty rad.

You attach a flat disc either on your phone or case. Size of a quarter coin.
I can't even tell its there.

Default amazing....

that mount puts your n1 in a perfect location to make EVERYTHING electronic below it obsolete, instantly. ok, the AC is kinda 'portant, but that high dolla nav stuff is shot outta the water by the stuff on the n1.

nice mount. do you have a bluetooth reciever so you can continue to play tunes in the ca r after work ?

U jealous of ice cream duuude ?

Everybody on here that's mad and complaining got smoked by a Windows Phone.

I do have a bt dangle, but it isn't perfect. I have handsfree Bluetooth through the factory stereo, but if I have both connected, the stereo "skips" often. So I just connect directly to aux.

Thanks for the review.

Was the discoloration around the M2 from the cleaning agent that comes with it? It seems like a perfect match for me, but according to review from Amazon, the cleaning agent is a bit too strong to discolor the surface.

If you don't mind, I'd love to see a close up of the disk that's attached to the phone/case.

The discoloration from the cleaning agent faded away after I wiped it with a moist paper towel.
There was discoloration on the case too, but it faded away also.

Thanks. This was the only placement that didn't block anything else, eg. AC, view,iDrive display.
Oh, its an M5 though, not a 7 series.
