Thanks im_iceman
I pick this mount up + a car charger
arrived yesterday, thought I would share some feedback with you guys.

The mount is almost all plastic, pretty light, a few metal pieces in the key area.
Setting up is pretty simple, just slide the mounting bracket (phone shape) to the air vent mount.
the mount have a knob allow you to loosen the mounting bracket to change rotation or turn it upside down if you want to.

Good n Bad
+Cheap I paid $10+3 shipping from ebay
+Easy to reach because you can mount it close to steering
+Light and won't damage air vent
+Won't come off like windshield mount
+Easy to use
-Won't work with any soft/hard case, can damage invisible shield
-can sometime bounce on very bumpy road *not really a big deal*

Overall I would recommend this if you don't want a windshield mount

You can see how I mount mine
