Thanks for the recommendation, however, in the description it does say that the adhesive could melt under high heat.
I am looking more for something that I can clip on to the air vent.

I also use the adhesive mount with the magnetic connection. I’ve been very happy with the results.
I looked for an air vent mount but didn’t find any for the SL. Also, my experience with the air vent mounts has been unsatisfactory.
I also have a CD mount that really works well. Depending on your year, if you have a CD player this is another good option.

So, setting your phone in a cup holder won't work? It does for me...

Haha, it does. But what if you want to use google map on your phone.

Mine goes in door pocket, centre storage or cupholder. Screen is too small for navigation and I don't read messages or take calls while driving (life is too short).
