    More specifically, an iPhone.

    I find it hard to keep my phone in one place while driving the car.
    I keep one of the ear buds in my ear while driving in the event I get a call that can't be avoided.
    But, that phone I slipping and sliding all over the place.

    I don't want to drill any holes unless I absolutely HAVE TO.

    Any advices as to where/how to mount the phone?

    Cheers!

    Do you keep an earbud in when yr in the shower??


    There are some times when the phone just needs to be switched off & driving the Ferrari is one of them....... (IMO of course :) )

    (if its that important they'll probably leave a message or call back later!)

    I leave it in my pocket or wedge it in the passenger seat between the seat and seatback. You could wear a shirt with a pocket and put it in your shirtpocket.

    I keep mine in my pocket. It's not like I can hear over the exhaust anyway.

    Tape it to the side of your head before drilling holes!
    Or if you must get a suction cup cell holder.

    I installed a audio unit (Sony) with Bluetooth and its adequate as a speakerphone in my GTS even with the top off. Of course, other drivers think I'm screaming at myself because I'm nuts.

    Leave at home, disconnect from the foolish electronic world and enjoy the real world without interference. It won't leave any damaging effects on you to be without.

    If you absolutely have to have something like this I might suggest getting a cupholder and putting the phone in that. Think like the old ones that simply slid down in the window slot or maybe one of the ones that clips onto the A/C vents. I am not too familiar with the layout of the GT4, but there has to be something that would work.

    In one of my other cars I found a simple cupholder that slid between the seat and the center console. It has two cupholders and another area where my cell phone fits perfectly. I think I got it at Walmart or something like that.

    Either idea would work and neither would require drilling or any other permanent damage to your car.

    My Blackberry fits nicely in the ashtray with the insert taken out. Not that I think about it once I'm driving.
