I have a Blackberry 7520. I never had a problem with how to mount it in my car, but then I got a Bluetooth headset and now I realize I want to be able to see the screen when I get a call so I know who it is before I answer. Normally when I do a car mount I just glue a holster to the car somewhere. Problem is, the phone goes in the holster with the screen facing the inside so you cannot see it:

I had the bright idea to take a dremel to an extra holster then gorilla glue some bent L brackets to it so I could mount it. I forgot how much gorilla glue expands when it sets, hehe. What a ghetto looking mess. I used two self tapping screws to hold it onto the dash, works good. I was suprised they had a good bite in that spongy dash stuff.
End result:

:lol:
I need to take it back out and cut the excess glue off and paint it black, but at least it works great for its intended function lol.
