There is only one Bronze color. The finishes use different nomenclature and are used interchangeably.

I just drop my phone in the cup holder. But would appreciate a picture of your setup.
Just finished installing. I’m happy with it. The mount itself is made of fiberglass that is then covered with a quality leather. There is some epoxy smell from the fiberglass still curing (should go away over time), so I’ve left the windows open in the garage to air it out.

It actually looks OEM when the phone is in it, but I was too lazy to get another camera to make that photo happen. It has some tumor like qualities when it’s empty. Definitely going to solve my problem though. I’ve had my phone fly all the way across the car during autocross runs before.

Door Closer Tow Strap

I, like many might sometimes get buckled in and realize the driver door is wide open. With bolstered seats it’s a problem to reach the handle easily, harder if you chose to body-build in a pear shape.

PROBLEM SOLVED:
I just installed a Tow Strap as a door closer helper.

Drilling an angled pilot hole from inside angled edge just below and forward of finger cup, then enlarged it to clear long 5/16” bolt, wallah!

It’s at an angle naturally and I put a washer on head, one with nut below, strap, washer, then another nut (sandwiching strap).

Lays nice open or closed, doesn’t catch in jamb.

Or just accelerate?
:)
True but thought of this nosed into garage, too expensive to accelerate from there. I’d have to back up and hit brakes.

For high winds, it could be a hinge saver.
