Note 2

This is probably very specific to a small portion of members, but it's kind of relevant to this forum..

Not sure if anyone cares, but if anyone has a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 or was thinking of picking one up, I noticed the other day that it fits nicely in the top part of the steering wheel on my '09 non-PP C63. It fits nice and snug and stays there. Probably not the safest thing to do this all the time, but when you're using the navi it could be nice. Added plus is that the steering wheel vibrates when you get a call, email or text, etc.

In my experience, it only blocks the bottom portion of the speedometer, I can see 60-100 or so just fine.

If a cop saw you doing this in Australia it would be a fine straight away.

No pictures right now, but I'm sure you can imagine a phone in the steering wheel hole, lol.

I'm sure a cop would not like it and I'm not saying to do it, was just saying I tried it and it worked quite nicely.

Would it be illegal? I know they do have steering wheel mounts for phones and even tablets.
