WhackyWill Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Hi Fellow Z'r. I have just paired up my Bluetooth in my Z with my iPhone 4. Just a quick question, I have tried putting my iPhone in the ashtray as I dont smoke, but it gets in the way of gear changing. Any suggestions where to put it that is accessable and not in the way. Thanks. :) Quote

DoogyRev Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I just left mine in my pocket And really you should not be using it while driving Quote
jamesdean Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 mine sits in my ash tray cant say it gets in the way. Quote
WhackyWill Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 Yes' I know, I hate phone holders on the window, Look like a mini cab driver. Dodgy Rev that's why I fitted hands free..! Could I suppose put a cup in the cup holder and put it in that. :) Quote
Bobbyheinz Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I put mine in the cup holder in the drivers door with the mic facing up Quote
Plummerman Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Take centre console out, have a perfect iPhone sized mount hole cut into lower console and fibre glass a docking station to the underside, run lovely cables to nice shiny stereo.. Then either control iPod via stereo or the remote which comes with the dock... Then god damn you apple you go and change your bloody specs.. One holey console. Haha Quote
Ekona Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Used to pop mine in the DIN pocket below the Alpine head unit. The cable for the stereo was in there too. Quote
370Ad Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 How does it get in the way in the ash tray? Fits perfectly! Now my old Galaxy S2 got in the way but that would get in the way in the boot Quote
DoogyRev Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Dodgy Rev that's why I fitted hands free..! Just lob it in the boot when you get in the car then Quote
Ekona Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) @350Ad: That would be right in the way of my forearm if it was there. Do you change gear with a Gay W*nking Claw style or something? Edited January 22, 2013 by Ekona 3 Quote

WhackyWill Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 No' 350AD that's right in the way of a quick double the clutch gear change. Great pic by the way.. Quote
cs2000 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I just leave mine in my pocket. If i have bl;uetooth in the car i dont need to touch the phone so.. Quote
WhackyWill Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 I need to be able to see who is calling me...witheld numbers get "tilt".. 0800 numbers get "tilt", I dont ever want to speak to another salesman selling me, insurance policy, double glazing, time share, air miles, PPI, I'm due £10k from the accident I didnt have..etc :. :rant: Quote
cs2000 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 just answer it and then treat the lovely salesman to some V6 roar... 1 Quote
DoogyRev Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Whats wrong with... Ring Ring, Ring Ring "Hello" "Hi would you like some Double Gla......" "Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" And continue driving It beats looking down to see who it is and running a family of ducks over Quote
SteveW Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I put mine in the cubby above the stereo... Quote

Dammit...Maybe that's why I never win the drag down the retail park! I 'think' my arm goes between the ash tray and handbrake. But now I am doubting myself. Will update tomorrow Quote
Supratad Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I've just put in a Dension Car Dock cradle for iPhone. Its a bit pricey at around £80 but it charges the phone, has a built in FM transmitter that works really well for playing music on the stock stereo and has a free app that makes phone use while driving very easy with big buttons. I mounted mine under the air vent, right next to the centre pod and ran the usb cable trough to the the passrnger footwell cig lighter. If you pay for the upgraded app, you can match colours to the orange interior lighting. Quote
Builder49 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Leave it turned off and take advantage of the factr that all those annoying callers cant get hold of you!!!! Oh and turn off voice mail cos that just cost even more!!!!!! BTW Will, dont forget to have the phone blinged up in gold to colour code with the wheels Quote
