I have the bracketron mount with the bracket that fits between the side of the radio and the dash (bolt-in), I got it from Q-tec, it works pretty well.

I made my own bracket and use a Rokform case. Works perfect... Only took about 2 hours to make.

I made the bracket out of scrap aluminum I had (cut and shaped the aluminum with a Dremel), bent it to match the contour of the dash, painted and textured to match the dash and picked up the allen bolts and washers at the hardware store for $4 bucks. Once it was ready I mounted the Rokform mount to the bracket. Once it was ready I riveted the bracket to the dash. The Jeep could roll over and its not coming off







This is the case I use.

Depending on what year you have, this solution might work for you - I love it.

The other location that this could be mounted to is right above the review mirror. Same design just upside down. You could also build a bracket and mount and attach it to the review mirror itself.

I have the magnet pad on my phone, it will fall off when you go rough wheeling. I use these in all my cars. The magnet is very strong but not strong enough to trust it during wheeling... It will slide around and sooner or later fall off.

I have a RAM suction cup mount for my iPhone and I would not recommend any other mount, the RAM mount is hands down the best iPhone mounting solution that I have found for my JK.

I picked one up at my local 4 wheel parts store. 25.00 I believe, it works amazingly well.
