mobile phone holder for BMW vehicles

thingiverse

As I purchased my vehicle, an existing bracket for a premium mobile navigation system was already in place. The driving force behind this project is straightforward: no more updates needed. So I explored the possibilities of creating a holder specifically designed for my smartphone and disassembled the old one. Following some measurements of the basic plate (pictures 2 and 3) on the dashboard, I began designing it using Fusion. The concept involves installing two separate components (four countersunk screws with nuts M3 x 20 are required to secure them together). The "bed" is designed to be interchangeable. Currently, a version for a Samsung Galaxy S4 has been created, but it has some issues related to the camera and volume up button. The next iteration features an integrated USB connector in the middle of the basic holder, and it will be black in color. **Update 2018-01-14**: After several years, I finally found the time to update this project with a bed for the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, featuring a bumper like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SV635BG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&language=en_US&psc=1 Pictures will be added shortly (it's challenging to showcase the holder with the mobile phone using just one camera).
