    I have a model 3 and I need to find the best cell phone holder (sturdiest, easiest to use, and best visibility) for ride-sharing. I've searched through this site and the Internet, but I can't figure out which type meets my stated needs.

    Thank you in advance for your response!

    Damn! I meant to put a question mark. It seems there's no way to edit the title. I'm sorry!:(

    I use a Nimbus mount which replaces the shifter.

    Works well in our 2010:).

    Responding from a Prius perspective since it was in a Gen3 thread, but maybe I’m wrong given the OP states a Model 3:oops:.

    I guess we’ll see(y).

    I have one that everyone’s been commenting on and recommending to others, but it’s only for a Prius.

    Maybe in a model 3 forum you’ll find a recommendation

    Prius owners are the smartest and most resourceful car owners so they know where to find us for information.

    Now I wish I had bought a Three trim level. No one is impressed with, "The Model Two."

    The hands down very best cell phone holder is to hold the steering wheel with one hand while using the other hand to hold your cell phone perfectly flat, like a tiny table in front of your face..

    I don't know why everyone does this, nor have I tried it, but it's by far the most popular cell phone holder.

    Prius owners would agree with you I'm sure, but most others would not...
