Kenu Airframe phone mount review



Check it out:















You might see (in first pic) I put a small cardboard shim to hold the vent up, this keeps the vent from leaning downward and keeps the phone above the radio volume button.



The rubber clips that hold it onto the vent are REALLY stiff and it fits snugly on the plastic directional controller for the fan. Phone held snugly by the Airframe's rubber, but it does wobble a little bit but that can probably be fixed with another shim or something.



Something like this should have come with the car! I remember seeing on the 86 convertible prototype they had some kind of phone holder.



Highly recommend you guys get one if you don't have a phone mount! No more looking down at my phone for GPS directions! Another added benefit is that your phone battery gets cooled by the A/C, which is helpful on mine since my phone tends to overheat while charging and running the gps radio with brightness all the way up.



Next I'll probably get some stick-on wire guide clips to tuck away the charging cable. So I needed a new phone mount. I had tried some suction mounts from amazon but they were wayy too bulky and didn't fit anywhere. Today I ran out to Staples and picked up a Kenu Airframe vent-mount phone holder for my BRZ, and it's pretty much the perfect solution for a phone mount on this car, costs about $25.Check it out:You might see (in first pic) I put a small cardboard shim to hold the vent up, this keeps the vent from leaning downward and keeps the phone above the radio volume button.The rubber clips that hold it onto the vent are REALLY stiff and it fits snugly on the plastic directional controller for the fan.
