BMW i3 Phone Mount
This mount is designed to fit either on the right or left of the dash. If you didn’t know, there is a lighter plug under the dash, this mount will go just to the right or left of that plug, making this the ideal mount for using with a chargable base (not included).
Installation
- The Phone mount comes pre-installed with two pieces of 3M VHB (very high bond) tape. The tape is optional, especially the under dash piece, but provides protection to your under dash area from scratches.
- If you choose to use the 3M VHB tape, please make sure you’ve tested your mount in the proper place and side before pulling the red off of the tape.
- 3M VHB tape can be easily removed if you wish to remove the mount, however it will not be reuseable (you’ll need to provide your own should you move it).
- Removing 3M VHB tape can be done with your fingers and all residue should come off.

FAQ
Q: Are the phone mounts resistent to heat?
A: Mounts are printed with PETG. The glass transition temperature of PETG ranges from 80-95°C (185-194°F). If you live in an outdoor area where temperatures are frequently above 40°c (104°F), then you may experience softening/warping. If you are in a warm climate, these may not be for you, however the VHB tape (not on all models) should help them stay in place even if warping occurs.
