It's not bad for $25, but wouldn't work for a phone bigger than an iPhone 11. It just attaches to the vent which is nice. If I were to do it again, I would probably go with the Rennline.

Ah thanks for the heads up on size constraints: it looks good compared to most options though.
nothing crazy, just trying to bring it up to your guys minimum standards. Remember, I got mine used and had no option to spec it and it came with standard interior. So, that’s about it. (Still trying to find a black on black dash)
my collection is almost complete. Just got the lower dash and glove box in OEM black leather and now scored a new black leather dash, never installed. I am thrilled - now comes the interesting part = install.
I installed BMC air filters this morning. Followed the Flat 6 video on YouTube and took my time, cleaned up everything behind the wheels and still only took me a hour and a half to do both sides. I know I didn't add any horsepower but the turbo's do sound better and these things just have to flow more air than those huge stock filters do.
I have too many cars, too little time and too much back stiffness (recovering from a back injury) to wash my own cars so I have a detailer come out every 4-6 weeks and clean 5-10 cars at a time depending on condition, but I figure something like this will allow me to do the occasional interim quick clean with minimal effort. I know if won’t compare to a proper 3 bucket wash but 5 minutes with the foam canon, 5 minute pressure wash off, 5 minute leaf blower dry and finish off with a nice drying towel should get me acceptable results with minimal setup, labor and need to bend down.
Edit: I know the reviews on these are pretty mixed but most of the negatives seem to be from power user types who want/need the best and most durable equipment which isn’t what I need at all. Also I am very space constrained on the wall I am mounting this so can’t go with a bigger unit.

I like it - 65 foot retractable hose is great. Let us know how it works. I use a small portable, electric power washer and it does the job. The hose is just too short and therefore I have to move the power washer around to get all around the car. The hose is also not friendly to not tangle. So, this seems much better.
How was the install? I assume you had to take the whole bumper off? How long did it take or did you hire a shop to do it?
The install was tedious. I had someone come over and help me out and he works on Porsches for a living and we took one pause in the middle to come back with a fresh mind. Lots and lots of tabs and maneuvering and a force required always seemed to be just a touch higher than comfortable. I would say it may have taken a few hours? I also did the full 20k service so was doing centerlocks, oil, air filter, etc and we jumped back and forth between items.
