Fix(es) for Display Overheating

[dtbaker61]

yeah, we never thought that this product could be used for that purpose

display mount organizer/phone mount was delivered today.... looks like it will take care of the heat problem very nicely AND work as a phone holder so I can essentially have a dash cam, and 'better than' Android auto with whatever will display on my phone.

fitment revealed that the default 'arm' positioned my phone such that it was obscuring vision a bit if I wanted my phone camera lenses above the 'holder'..... so I of course had to mess with it.

Since AOSK includes both a left/right arm, the easiest mod is to use the passenger side arm, flipped over to lower the phone position..... all I had to mod was a TINY slot to enable mounting the arm flipped. I am included pix so that @AOSK might consider a change in molding so no mod is required in future.

Love it!

I am thinking this might solve multiple 'wishes'..... to see apps that won't display w android auto for instance.... and the long awaited display of live stream data from ODB2 via CanScanner for power and temps that you might want to see while driving!

Or, I suppose cool dash videos while driving....

I not only modified the phone height, but added 'ventilation' screening...

If I were to make a suggestion to your ventilation idea. Why does @AOSK mold in a small extension to the passenger side to divert a part of the passenger vent to cool the screen?
