I need to bring it closer than the suction mount option. It’s just a tad too far away to be seen clearly. Again Renault master business plus. Any experience here please?

Brodit may help. They do phone and satnav mounts.

I had one of them years ago, they vibrate, a no no for me.

That looks interesting. How does it actually grip the CD player?

It is a combo of the wedge shape and the upwards curve of the slot bit. It works well does not slip out, does not vibrate and is very versatile.

Its failure of course is that many cars now no longer come with a CD player.

Umm, but the PPoS has a CD player, rather conveniently located as well. And I *never* listen to CDs.

I shall see if it is available on Amazon.

I have one of these.
It's very good.
Clamps into cd slot well.
Grips phone well. Sometimes needs ball joint tightening on rough roads, but generally vibration is minimal.

 Sat nav CD slot mounting - sherlock47
I had a similar expanding cd slot gripper, unbranded. It was excellent and I ordered several others so that all cars had similar mounts. Same supplier, same 'model'. The later ones were absolute rubbish, cost reduced to the point of non gripping.

Most of the air vent ones that I have tried do not lock the vent flaps in position, leading to vibration and similar problems on bumpy roads.

I've got a Garmin beanbag type mount. It looks a bit Heath Robinson but it works really well on dashboard flattish surfaces where a suction mount can't work.

You can Google for generic alternatives.
