Need to prop up cell phone on 2011+ upper dash panel
So I'm looking for a place to put my iPhone 6 Plus, which is huge, and decided I want to position it landscape in the rear of the upper dash tray insert. It works well except that the dash is a little too depend it's hard to see/access the bottom of the phone when it's in there leaning up against the back of the insert. Has anyone seen any insert for that insert that creates a little shelf for things like a cell phone? Has anyone done anything like this if there isn't a solution that's sold? I'm thinking if I put two small objects in there (hard foam perhaps) the phone can rest on those and it will raise it a bit.
Just wondering if anyone has seen or done anything like this. I've seen the Daystar upper dash for the 2010 and priors and saw the one of the 2011+ with the mounting ball but would prefer to just have the phone sit in the shelf. Holders are too big/bulky, especially when not in use.
Thanks!

When I had my note 2. I had a cell phone holder than inserted into the CD player and had a magnetic pad. The kit also came with a thin metal plate that goes into your phones case. So id hop in my jeep slap my phone on the pad and it rode fine. Since the phone wasn't clamped in it makes it super easy to rotate vertical or
Landscape which is great for using as navigation. Look for infiniApps slyde cd slot phone holder on Amazon. It's a great product.

This is what I use. It bolts in using the stock bolt and has 2 ram mounts. Very flexible design for changing requirements. I use 2 ram extensions with it and it puts my phone in front of the dash.
