Should we have somewhere to place recommendations for stuff? for example I've recently treated myself to a new in car phone holder and decided to treat myself to something other than the basic cheapo off Fleabay I would normally go for.

I ended up with one of these

and its absolutely superb. A million times more stable than the cheap ones and the dedicated phone clip makes it so simple to put in and remove but holds it totally still in use. With mine being an e90 it also makes it such that I can rotate it to use the internal screen of the phone in sat nav mode.
