What have you bought for your Zed this week?

What's it for?

It replaces this set up.

Much neater when not in use and I can use for my mobile phone also.

£7.99 off eBay.

Thanks @petecossie
Just ordered. Have tried many phone mounts for the Z3 without satisfaction. This might just do it!

Word of warning. Several years ago I purchased something similar with the same type of ring sticky fastener and put it in my brand new daily, when I removed it 3 years later when the car was changed the sticky bit had damaged the dash material. Not ripped it but sort of melted it. I assumed the glue had reacted, maybe it was down to the dash material, but I doubt it. Not stuck anything to a dash since.

Valid point, however I've just repositioned a none slip pad I purchased from Amazon back in April 2022 to put under my old sat nav holder shown above and there was no visible reaction to the dash surface where it had been for the last 2½ years. It proved very effective in stopping movement of the sat nav holder. See pics below

I purchased from Amazon see details below.

Ganvol (2 Pack Anti-slip Car Dash Sticky Pads, Heat Resistant Non-Slip Mats, Dashboard Holder (14 x 7 cm)- Leave no Residue Don't Melt under Hot Temperature - When Dusty, Wash and Reuse as New
Sold by: GanvolTech (Incl. 20% VAT)

£5.99
At the moment these particular items aren't available, but there will be similar items on eBay/Amazon.

I'm going to use mine to set the the new holder onto the dash top when I get car out the garage tomorrow.
