I’m looking for recommendations for a good universal phone mount option for a 2007 L322 (my wife and I both use car and have different model phones).

I’ll be using the phones sat nav so line of sight is important and wireless charging would be a bonus

I made this for my 10in tablet using 5mm Aluminium Angle glues on with silicone. on the angle I bolted a camera tripod ball joint which screws into the tablet mount.
I have a mount that fits mobiles also so it can be changed however this is in my HSE which doesn't have sat nav so use the tablet for sat nav when I need it.
The silicone allows me to remove it without leaving holes in the console

But it is low down not "line of sight" Geoff

All those are too low down for me - I use a magnetic holder that clips into the dash-top vent.
The phone rests securely on the dash, will take a picture of it but it's very safe because you don't take your eye down at all, it is the same level as the speedo etc.

Brodit do lots of different bases, that can go between panels etc. I've got 1 at either end of the dash display. On one I have my Alpine DAB control box and on the other, I have my Sat-Nav unit, so you pretty much put anything onto them.

I spent ages trying to find one that did what you wanted. This one works well for me.

Bought one of these. Looks a little creepy but the spider legs fit in the dash mounted vents and it works a treat on the L405 and other cars I’ve tried it in:

I use a Spiderpodium too. Works well. Previously a 2008MY Tonga Green Vogue SE 3.6 TDV8

After messing about with various models over the years I made my own, simplicity is the key. A piece of alloy u shaped stuck above the centre air vents. There is enough lean to stop your device falling back and something non-slip in the grove stops sideways movement during spirited cornering. Trust me this works brilliantly even with a 10 inch tablet
