Brodit Leon ProClip

[J-me]

I have been looking at getting a brodit phone holder so I can have something to hold my phone in my car without having to drill any nasty holes.

I have however come across a problem, it seems to me that it won't fit with my radio. (which is the standard leon radio)

Here is a link to an install guide http://www.dsldevelopments.com/brodit/fitting_Instructions/Proclip.asp?Brodit=653715&Make=Seat&Model=Leon

The problem is that in the install guide the on/off button and the station select buttons are on the opposite sides to my radio. The station seslect buttons are considerably wider than the on/off button, and it looks like there isn't any room to attach the brodit adaptor beside them.

Has anyone got one of these on their car? Did it fit ok with your radio? Anyone any other suggestions for a good in car holder for a Nokia N95 that doesn't involve any dash surgery?

Thanks,
J

Hmh. Pics taken from a LHD car and images are mirrored. They might not have thought everything when they've done that

EDIT: Any real pics from a RHD dash???
EDIT2: Might be a tight fit

Thanks for the reply!

I was thinking that they might have just been lazy and mirrored the LHD images. It does look pretty tight doesn't it? Although it may be possible to mount it just a bit higher I think I might get one and see, if it doesn't fit I can always send it back

I'll post some pics if I get it to work. Might be a while though... dang postal strike

I slid mine a bit higher near the top of the HU.

I hate the Dension / HU interface. Managed to switch to it the other day whilst using my horn and it took me ages to suss how to turn it back.
