The phone clips in securely and the twist-suction cup locks down really tight. The mount swivels in two places for positioning and doesn't move when tightened. Mounted flush under the mirror it's out of the way, the camera has a clear view, and "guage apps" are easily seen.
In general use, it's an alternative to hands-free for the phone as well. Just tap for speaker-phone.
Solid construction and I'm happy with it.
iPHONE ALTERNATIVE LENSES for filming inside the Z4M
P.S. You can stick it between the seats on the rear glass for a "full cockpit view" but then you might want one of these:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Olloclip-iPh...item257004f727
The Olloclip (above) is a serious piece of kit whereas you can get this (below) just to test the concept:http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Detachab...item2ebdab5dba
I can suction-attach it to the plastic drop-down lid for the center compartment as well but the suction only pasts a hour or so under normal and spirited driving conditions. I wouldn't mount it there for the track. So if you're going to try the rear glass for the cockpit view... get a longer arm (maybe) and a wide angle lens (probably).
