Displaying Additional Devices

During our last 2 long duration trips I've attached my iPhone, TPMS and Sirius XM devices in suction cup cradles to the side window on the drivers side.  Problem was that this hindered how far this window would open and required removing the devices in order to lower the MCD shades.

EZ fix has been to fasten a pice of plexiglass to the side valence and mount these devices using their suction cups.  Still have to route required cables neatly back to the "A pillar", but you get the idea.  Puts these at eye level and doesn't impact opening the window or lowering the shade.  Also, not in the field of view out the windshield.

We put adhesive dash mounting disk in the useless cup holders in the center of the dash and mount the GPS in one and my TPMS in the other.  They can even be stuck to the bottom of the overhead cabinet on the drivers side or under the TV cabinet.  They work great!

When I recovered the dash I took out those useless cup holders and the little pop up table. GPS sits on one of those sand bed things in the middle next to the laptop and the TPMS is on the windshield but thinking of moving it to the left side window so I can reach it.
