In all actuality, Im a safe driver and only use hands free.I get really annoyed at people texting while driving. I just want the phone up higher for using navigation instead of sitting in the cup holder.
The A/C vent seems like a good spot. I don't want to use a suction cup mount on the windshield. Velcro or double stick tape options are not acceptable either.

It seems most A/C vent clip style cell phone holders won't fit the jk A/C vents because the of the size and shape.

I use this Bracketron mount and holder. I like that it is mounted off the side but still high enough to easily read a map or scroll through music. Might be an option for you.

i like the idea of that, but the custom bezel mounting bracket is for 07-10, I have a 2011. I think they make a universal mount for 2011+, it's pricey though, I will have to give them a call on Monday
