Hello All,

I am curious if anyone has found a bolt in solution for a phone mount in a GLK?
Do any of the Rennin products for other Mercedes models work?

Thanks in advance for any input you have.

I just bought a 2015 Glk 250 Bluetec with similar issue. Currently, i have the phone upright on the retractable console cover leaning against the air controls.
I’ve looked into several options.
1. Windshield glass mount - ugly with dangling cord over radio and ac vents
2. Dash mount - surface material can’t hold suction and dangling cord
3. Long flexible coiled conduit mount up from ashtray outlet - ugly but no dangling cord and you’ll have to keep retractable console open all the time.
4. Put in front of AV screen - can’t see what you’re doing with radio or other commands.

I’m still searching for best solution.

Have you guys considered WeatherTech products?

Check out their CupFone options.

My passenger and I use the front cup holders since the car doesn’t have additional ones in the front doors.

I got my wife a Pro-Clip phone mount set. It works great.

Air vent magnet phone holder. Looks very sleek.
Something like this:

Your phone case has to have a magnet in it. Or you can stick a magnet to the back of your phone.

Oh! no kidding? sorry. then it's okay...

Thanks! This will work perfectly. In fact the holder is made to fit the GLK dash design.

This works well with straight horizontal vent blades. Unfortunately, my 2015 GLK 250 have round vents like an SLK.

Which would be fine if they weren't always trying to program them while driving.

It may be made to fit the GLK dash but I don't really like the fact that it covers an entire vent pod basically. And your phone will certainly cover up the rest of the vent.

They also have a left A-pillar mount style but I'm not sure if that would interfere with side/curtain airbags deploying during an event.

They look good though, and are priced decent.

I was really hoping that someone would know of a Rennin product that bolts in like this:



But the ProClip solution looks decent so I will give it a try... Thanks All!

You’re absolutely right. And if you move it to the right it will cover the hazard lights button. 🤦‍♂️
perhaps I can find (or make) a non destructive clamp or clip that attaches to the lip of the dashboard above the screen and add a swivel type phone holder on top of it. Sorry I’m out of the box and in the weeds.

I bit the bullet and purchased ($80+) a Pro Clips phone holder. It works well and made of good materials. i placed it as far right possible on the vent so it's partially covered and not completely covering the Emergency Lights button. It works for me and I'll keep it. The only drawback is the infotainment screen is partially blocked by the phone (not much). I have an SE 2nd Generation which is not very long, but be cautious using this with longer (larger?) phones. You can alway turn it horizontally.

I have 2 GLKs. We have the phone mount that tightens into the CD player. Our phone cases have a metal piece on the back so the magnet holds the phone tight. Also, we can swivel it around anyway we wish.
