Are you using a satnav on your phone? If yes do you find GPS signal is low in that position or is it ok?

I tried it on the way to work to test it and it works perfectly, i control the iphone through the head unit via alpine/iphone lead which is hidden.

TBH I'm not a fan, with the dock on display 24/7 I would think it would entice thieves, much better to have it hidden in the ashtray then you can cover it when not in use

Only if you leave the iphone on the dock, it would still poke out of the ash tray and be just as visable. Its unlikely to encourage thieves to break in on the chance there might be an iphone in there because it has a dock. After all whos phone is in the their car when they arnt lol?

Yeah because thats avoidable,
Regarding leaving your phone in your car when your not, cars get broken in to all the time just because there are suction cup marks on the windscreen because people think the sat nav is sat in the glove box, which they usually are
