iPhone holder suggestions?

I really don't know where to put this so I just put it in the general thread. Does anyone have any recommendations for iPhone holders, but one that can be adjusted, because the phone has a case on it. It's not that I can't find an iPhone holder, it's that I'm looking for one that can adjust for a case, and all I'm finding is stuff that fits the naked phone

I took the silly cup holder off the passenger side since it was broken when I got the car, but I do use the cup holder under the console.

Unless you want the phone as a GPS. Then you have a completely different need. I opted for a Magellan for that purpose. It's dedicated and doesn't rely on cell coverage, which I spend time traversing. No cell coverage, no GPS from your phone, or at least that's my thinking..

I use this in another vehicle. It fits with a case on and uses the slot for the CD player.

Which iPhone do you have and which MINI are you driving? If you have the 6Plus you will need a tablet holder

A Ram mount with the universal X-grip will hold an iPhone with an otterbox case just fine. I got mine from Amazon.

There are a ton on amazon. I picked one up with a big suction cup on there for like $8. I stick it right on the speedo face.

+1 for the Craven! I have my phone (in a case) in one holder, and my ScanGauge in the other, out on either side of my tach.

Another vote for the Cravenspeed mount. I just got mine a few weeks ago. Its a bit expensive, but you can tell the money went into the product. I doubt there is anything better on the market. The only downside is if I move on to a F56 at some point, I can't take it with.
