Originally had my iPhone by the screen cubby via an AkroHD adapter and RAM mounts, but I was unhappy with the stability and found the location distracting, since I never use the phone itself with CarPlay.
I actually like the factory location but HATE having to mess with plugs and wires when entering/exiting the truck. I also don't mind wired CarPlay for the added connection speed, stability, and faster charging.
Solution: I have an older Brodit Lightning charger cradle that I was using on the RAM mount that I disassembled and attached to the factory phone holder with VHB tape. It fits perfectly in the cutouts and allows me to slide my phone in with one hand.
