I am bringing this up again, I asked Jonathan if he wouldn’t mind printing me one (sounds strange doesn’t it)

Got it the other day and must say it is great quality, lovely touch that it has fabric on the clamp to protect the hand hold.

I have it set up just like the pictures above, great as my phone doesn’t sit in the cup holders any more and I can see who is calling me to decide if I answer the wife.

So highly recommended, thank you Jonathan

Hi everyone,

I would like to personal thank each and every F-Type Forum customer that ordered a bespoke F-Type phone holder, the response has been exceptional. Your support and feedback have been invaluable, they have give me the confidence to setup an online web shop https://www.knightspeed.co.uk to start producing and selling "Bespoke Phone Holders" for sports cars and super cars.

If us F-Type owners all have the same phone holder issues maybe other 2 seater sport car owners might have the same problems, at least i hope so. I have recently invested in some advanced equipment which will allow me to 3D scan a cars interior and produce a bespoke phone holder that fits that car perfectly. I have also purchased a new very expensive :shock: industrial grade 3D printer which produces much higher quality finished parts.

I have just added a new Wireless (QI) phone holder which will fast charge all wireless enabled phones including Samsung Galaxy's and the new iPhones 8, 8+ and X

Please visit my new website https://www.knightspeed.co.uk and give me your thoughts and feedback on it.

I have also setup a promo campaign where you can win discounts by referring your Super Car friends to the site. Send this link https://goo.gl/S8SnxJ to anyone you think might want an F-Type Phone Holder and you will receive a 10% discount.

Again thank you for all your support.

Regards
Jonathan

I can tell you of a mass produced car that's a right PITA to find a decent phone holder: Evoque. Personally we want a holder that sits around the top of the dash level. Both of us use our Smartphones for the Sat Nav (much better than using the cars) Ideally wants to be in the drivers eyeline without interupting the view out of the windscreen. Also aids reception being that little bit higher. I would've bought one of your F-Type ones but the phone resides too low for my use.

An Evoque, interesting. Ill take a look. Thanks.

The problem is 99.9% of phone holders are designed to be generic and actually don't solve a problem, rather create one. Unfortunately there is no solid fixing point higher up on the F-Type to secure the phone holder too.

Hi,

OK after changing my iPhone to a Galaxy Note 8 (good move!) and as this phone has wireless charging I wondered if I could get a phone holder that would support this function.

Low and behold as I was looking at the Knightspeed Website what do I see but one of these exact items! So purchased and very happy with the holder.

It was very easy to install, just one screw and easier than the previous holder from these chaps as this could be done by hand without any tools, a nice improvement.

Didn't use the supplied Cigar Charger and Cable but used my existing short lead to plug into the holder and all was good.

From the video below you can see how easy it is to just drop the phone into the holder, the green light changes to blue as it charges and that's it. Also very easy to do one handed so good if you forget to put your phone on charge on the move (so to speak!!! :o ).

Thanks

P.S I have no affiliation with Knightspeed but do like this product.. :)
