The Brodit Proclip and holder for my Nokia E71 came today. We saw the example of the A pillar clip, in a previous post, that was going to be used with a Sat Nav.

I chose the angled Proclip that fitted next to the radio so the phone could be seen and reached but would not interfere with vision or (as in the case of the second Proclip option for the Yeti) the air vents.

The Brodit system is quite expensive but all the work is in the design and manufacture. Any clip can be matched to any phone holder which makes the system very flexible. The instructions are clear and the photographs unambiguous.

Armed with this, I sat in the car at 5.00 this evening and started - it was so straightforward that I surprised myself. A wedge shaped tool called the Gap Opener gave the slight clearance needed to slip the tongue of the clip into the gap between radio and trim, a sticky strip held it in place on the trim face. The clip is finally fixed by pushing another small tongue into the gap between the silver plastic finish and the black trim surrounding the front passenger storage compartment door. It was as simple as that - like fitting Lego bricks.

The phone holder was stuck to the face of the clip with two strips and then two small screws held it firmly in place.

I can recommend the Brodit system. Whatever clip you chose, it is made to fit exactly and the design makes fitting easy.
