Not specifically SL related, but I use the built-in wireless charger and/or plug it into the USB port and use CarPlay or Siri Handsfree to interreact with the phone. Haven't mounted a phone in forever. I keep it out of sight. In the past I've used https://www.proclipusa.com/ and still have their suction cup mount for when I travel in case the rental car doesn't have CarPlay, but I can't even remember the last time I had to use it.

Thank you for the quick reply, I see what you saying. Just i'm used to have my phone mounted infront of me all the time, beside the charging place in the SL makes the phone super hot.

Same here. I like to have access to the phone screen too. Unfortunately proclipusa does not make a custom mount for the SL. Their universal cup holder mount doesn’t work. The cup holders in the SL are too far back to see the phone and the mounting device ruins the look of the interior.

Totally agree. The only option the ones that you stick on the dashboard, but really don't want to stick a 3m
