NextGen Phone Mount V2.5 - Passenger

OVERVIEW

The OpenSourceEV NextGen Phone Mount V2 is the latest generation of the best phone mount on the market for Rivian R1T and R1S. This updated version of our mount that installs at the very top of the passenger side outboard vents. It doesn't obstruct airflow at all, it's easily in reach of the driver, and it's outside of the shadow of the steering wheel.

NEW WITH V2.5

Included balls at every size are now have a slimmer base, so that the installed mount is now able to adjust nearly 20 degrees further. This allow even more flexibility in phone positioning to better dial in ergonomics.

WHATS NEW IN V2

The NextGen Phone Mount V2 has been painstakingly updated to make this the very best phone mount on the market for the Rivian R1T and R1S. Here's what's new:

• Strength: Dimensions have been overhauled, so it's absolutely rock solid. We're now offering it with 20MM and 1 Inch attachment sizes for heavier devices. 
• Refinement: Contours have been refined so it integrates beautifully with the interior. Unlike other solutions, it small so it doesn't block airflow from the vent, and you don't have to futz with the dash pad so there is no warping or bending.
• Stability: The mounting balls have been redesigned with a new, textured skin. This allows attached phone holders to SIGNIFICANTLY better secure to the ball with less pressure. Other mounts tend to slip.
• Precision: Production is now 30% more precise, reducing layer lines and artifacting. It's now much closer to mass-produced OEM-like part to blend in better.
• Flexibility: In addition to the larger attachment sizes, we're now retailing it with TWO different phone holders to better suit your style and needs. Each is a name-brand solution with hundreds or thousands of five-star reviews. None are white-labeled junk. We're only doing two mounts as there is no easily accessible power on the passenger side.

MARKET LEADER

The NextGen Phone Mount V2 continues the precedents set by the last generation phone mounts we released. We wholeheartedly believe it's the absolute BEST phone mount on the market for the Rivian because:

1. The mount is constructed of premium-grade ASA for excellent durability, UV resistance, and temperature resistance of up to 300 degrees. Others in the market are made from PETG which can deform in high heat, or from ABS which will fade from UV exposure.
2. The ball mount is modular allowing for easy swaps if you move to a different phone holder or easy replacement should something break. Additionally, we're now selling a kit with ALL available balls for maximum flexibility.
3. Everything is secured in place by an M5 x 35MM stainless steel bolt and nut. Others are clipped together or clip in, which is much, much more prone to fail.

THREE SIZES

The NextGen Phone Mount is compatible with all three ball sizes - 17MM, 20MM and 1 Inch. The 17MM works with most phone mounts, 20MM works with the co-branded Offroam x Peak Designs products, and a 1" size designed for RAM branded items only.

If you're not sure what to get, we recommend the 17MM setup. It's what most phone holders on the market use, for better or worse. This includes all four options that we sell, should you not want to roll-your-own.

PHONE HOLDERS

This mount alone will not hold a phone in your Rivian - it is designed to be an attachment for a 3rd party phone holder. The phone holder snaps onto the ball mount and locks down in place via a locking screw on the back.

We sell two different phone mounts that we have validated to worked exceptionally well with this mount. We're not bundling in either of the powered mounts from the driver side as there is no easily accessible power on the passenger side.

• ATB 720 Degree: MagSafe / magnetic that holds exceptionally well and has a secondary adjustment screw half way to the end. This holder provides the best flexibility of every mount we sell as you can really dial in the phone location.
• Lisen Offset Mount: MagSafe  / magnetic holder that holds quite well too. It's offset to the side to ensure you phone doesn't disrupt the flow of air from the vent and it's open in the center so it appears streamlined and visually disappears over time.

Pictures of each mount are in the gallery - both of the part, and what it looks like installed. As each mount is magnetic, they all come with a metal ring that can be affixed to your phone or case if not equipped already.
