4 out of 5 stars Holds Tight   July 7, 2008
Holds items great. Ipods need to be raised up abit to accomodate power/radio hook up.


3 out of 5 stars Almost what I wanted   April 3, 2008

Good quality product but didn't quite meet the use I had intended. It won't fit a iPod with a docking cable but it will cradle it. To the products credit, it didn't say it would fit. Otherwise the vent mounting system works but it would nicer if it could be a little more secure. The over design is robust and yet simple. I'm sure it would be a good solution for holding some other device such as a small cell phone or GPS


5 out of 5 stars Working just great   April 2, 2008
I got this for my N95 8GB on my Ford Taurus. It's easy to put on and the phone just stays sturdily on it. Amazingly, I can easily take it off from the vent (not as hard as others described). The bottom feet is adjustable, enabling me to avoid the charging hole. In all, it's a smart design and won't let you down!

While the vent mount attached firmly, I did not think the resulting placement of the holder would be convenient for my older iPod Nano, so I removed the mount from the holder and attached the holder to the lower portion of my center console with double-sided picture frame or mirror adhesives (the kind you can buy at any office supply store for a couple dollars). Now, the holder is conveniently placed and I have saved the mount for possible future use. Also, as a previous reviewer stated, by sliding your iPod up an inch or two, you can plug in both the dock connector and the headphone mini-jack while the iPod remains snug in the holder. In the end, a very good product if you use a little creativity.

FYI - If you decide to move or remove the vent mount once it has been installed, this will prove very difficult unless you use a knife or screwdriver to gently lift the back catch over the back side of the vent cover where it anchors as you pull the mount out. Simply pulling and lifting will not work, as the mount is well designed to stay put once installed.



2 out of 5 stars Bottom feet block both ports on iPOD Nano 2G   April 5, 2007
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

I received this product shipped from "The Mount Guys" in NJ. Neither invoice nor any instructions were included. All indicated parts were shipped OK. I managed to install the unit OK, but found that the bottom feet blocked both ports on my 2G Nano. You have to workaround this by positioning Nano higher in the cradle for power/headphone cords to clear the base. Not really designed for Nano 2G, but it works.
