Well done Peter, great looking car

Thanks, I am pleased with it. Hopefully it will stand up to a spirited drive 😂😂

I have tried lots of different links from Imgur but no luck.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong please ?

thanks to @RichW426 and @cozzykim I have made my own version of a phone holder. Seems to be the most stable phone holder I have had in my 981s with no sticky pads and no magnets. It is either bolted together or uses ball joints. The brackets suggested above to slide on the glove box edge fit well and with the sticky back felt, they are very snug and do not move once the glovebox lid is closed. I used the footwell usb plug and snuck the cable behind the centre console side panel.

The only change to the design above was that I added a "17mm Universal Ball Head Arm Car Phone Holder Ball Dashboard Bracket" from ebay, removed the circular base by undoing the small bolt with the provided allen key and bolted this direct the glovebox edge bracket.

I will try to post pictures next if I can remember how 🙂

thanks, that looks good, just trying to find one with a quicker delivery time 🙂

I like that, where did you get the extension arm from ?  I might add that to mine when I make it over the next few days 🙂

Hi Rich,

just back from holiday, going to try and re-create your mount. Ordered the bracket & mount from Amazon and grey felt from ebay. My interior in grey so thought I would try grey felt. The other change I am going to try is to replace the front with a phone holder I have used for years (rather than a magnet holder). My current phone holder fits into the air vent but keeps falling out. I like the front part though so hopefully I can find a way of mating the two parts together. I will post pics if I can get it to work 🙂

I have been looking for a better phone mount option & I like the look of this. Do you have links to the bits on Amazon please ?

cheers

Tony

This should help the 2nd hand prices even more 😀

Does the car belong to someone on here ?

cheers

Hi,

I just had mine refurbed with Chris (07885 259571) from Exel Wheels. You can find him on Facebook to see his other work.

He is based up Lincoln way I think but he drives all over the country, picks up your wheels, lends you another set, gets them done to your specification and brings them back and fits them as well. Great service and great quality.
