I use an iomount https://www.iomounts.com/ to mount my phone in my car. Although there are many others on the market. The only thing on the phone is a small metal plate stuck to the back of the case of my phone.Thanks for the info, extremely helpful. I just have never found Waze to be useful but I haven't sat down and played with it enough I guess. I have Navigation in all of my vehicles and have never needed it. I have a Garmin GPS I was going to use as it has free map updates for life so It's alway current.
As for the wireless charger, can the phone be charging and still on the cplay2air? I typically don't need to charge but you never know. Does the iPhone battery drain using CarPlay? If so, I may need to charge.
Not sure what you meant by magnetic holder near the dash and get map on 8" and turn by turn and directions on iPhone. What type of magnetic mount do you use and where do you have to position it? Never used a magnetic mount before. So the vehicle 8" will only have the map and the sounds and directions come from phone and not through the vehicle?
In the photos attached you can see the holder location in the car. I also have one with the phone in full navigation mode in waze with map on the screen and turn by turn on the phone and then you can also have turn by turn on the phone and another app, like spotify open on car screen.
Also, my apologies for the dust on everything. I swear I'll clean it one of these days.
