[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 6425325, member: 1"] I often connect my iPhone up in my car. It's an older car, so no Bluetooth or anything, but the headphone socked links to the stereo via a cable, and the power socket to the cigarette lighter so that Siri is active for hands-free use without having to touch the phone (Siri responds to "Hey Siri!" while charging). It's an ideal setup, as I can simply say "Hey Siri, play X" for music or "Hey Siri, call X" for hand-free calling through the stereo. For various reasons, the stereo cannot be replaced with an aftermarket one. The arrangement is fine - except for the fact that eery time I get in the car I have to connect up two cables to my iPhone (a power and a headphone cable) and then affix it to the dash. I have a magnetic thing which makes the latter a doddle, fortunately. But the whole connecting up two cables (I know - first word problems!) every time I get into the car is a PITA. What I'd like to do is affix something to the dash which already connects to the stereo and power. So I'm literally just mounting the phone on that thing. It does all three (mount, power, headphones) at once. So, is there such a device I can buy? If so, what is it called? (Please keep tiresome phone-manufacturer-loyalty-wars comments out of this).
