Good grief people. Although everyone has a right to their own opinion, can't you just say THANKS for sharing the idea? If you were going to comment 'just buy one', why are you watching a DIY option for a mount? This is good in a pinch for those who need to travel last minute for work. But it sounds like most folk here probably don't travel for work and don't know how difficult it can be when the adhesive no longer works in multiple rental cars or the air vents are different in each one, and better yet when you're just trying to return the rental car and book it to the terminal to catch your flight and forget your mount. Yeah, a $5 mount is nothing when it's just in your personal car and stationary. Try moving it to multiple cars and maybe forgetting it a few times, it'll add up with re-purchase. Just say thanks people.

If my dad sent me to the tool box for a wrench and I came back with PLIERS, like this guy has, I’d be slapped into next week. Sheeesh!!! Obviously this guy is an office jockey. None the less it’s a pretty good idea!! Thanks!!

You can also place a microfiber towel or paper towel when bending the clip arms to avoid scuffing the rubberized coating off of the arms. This is an awesome idea!! And I love the last comment in the video, “I practically stole all the materials..”. 😂😂😂

AWESOME! 👏🏽 my dad was planning on buying one of these holders, but then I sent him this video and now he’s REALLY considering to do it. He changed his mind really quickly 😂😂

Hard to believe this guy has ever used a wrench before.

WOW!!!! Thanks for sharing. The cell car mount I got keeps falling from the windshield 😭. This is 100% better, perfection! Once again, thanks!

This is such a great idea. I am going to make one now. thanks alot#!

AWSOME IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GONNA DO JUST THAT,for 2 or 3 phones; best idea i´ve seen for these!!!!!!!!thanks

wow really liked this solution, which is not only pretty much free but will probably work just as well.

Excellent! I like it!

Excellent. Thank you.

Ingenious. Thank you.

The rubberized handles are called "soft-grip". Search using that term!

What's the size of the clip???

brilliant.. great job

Thank you, sweet idea

You are really very talented

Excellent Donald Bell.

Nice video, it actually doesn't look to bad when finished.

Mind-blowing idea....

Hey God . love It man. U save my money which I going to be wasted by buying a costly mobile holder. Thanks a lot Dear...... God Bless You.

Hey loved the idea.. Just great diy project.. Can u guys make a video about diy HUD display.. Thanks

Simply creative!! so many likes

Awesome. Thank you so much. :-)

What a genius thank man 😀👍

An idea if you only have regular binder clips: cut the end off some paracord and use the sleeve the cover the arms after you pull the strings out

Very clever for rental cars thank you 😊

Good quick fix for when I am traveling and need to drive around.

Does it have warranty

Love it!

Does it go with small paper clip

فكرة رائعة شكراً Great idea thanks

where did you get your clip? Amazon and ebay bothe have thinner clip arms.

Awesome idea

Super cool👍👍

o melhor vídeo que assisti parabéns!

That works way better than I thought it would, haha.

is it ok if you mounted in the ac?

Wow man! you're gr8

great video , bought 4 mount holder all useless , thanks for the advice

Great one thank u

What is the clip size?

Where can I get Plasta-bands like the one Donald used at 1:46?

Omg that is so clever. Got to go. Going to the store to get big clips.🏃

Is that good for iPhone 6plus ??

Spends hundreds of dollars for the phone but go cheap on the mount. Makes all the sense in the world!

👍😁I really like this hack! Thanks for sharing. I wish I had seen this video a couple of weeks ago before I spent $39 on the Niteize Steelie with the vent clip & magnetic ball!!!! 😩 New handsfree laws all over the country...people need to get a solution...quick. New Georgia law starts July 1, 2018!!!

Thank u!!!

I’m stuck at the step where he says “grab your wrenches”

amazing and simple idea.

nice trick mate... :)

nice aveo!

All that trouble just so you won't pay 5$ for a special support that doesn't scratch the car

OMG... THANK U!!!

Awesome !

One word... MAGNETS!!!

Amazing hack...Show us More Cool Hacks.

just what I was looking for, I'm fed up of buying car phone mounts only for them to break within a couple of months, more plastic into landfill, not good. Does anyone in the UK know where can get the bulldog clips with the plastic coating?

Thanks brother

Thanks a lot

Hey good job thanks

Merci pour le partage je vais essayer votre méthode

wowwwww..very nyc thankd for sharing

Will it scratch ur dashboard?

It works for iPhone 11?

super helpful

You heard it here everybody, CNET condones stealing office supplies for making car mounts! Just kidding, it's a good tip. Thanks for sharing.

nice job

This is amazing I will do it for my wife car and mine.

Scosche majic mount 👌

Wowwww now thats good one, now for a 10.1 inch tablet

What if you're not an isheep and have a nicer bigger phone like the galaxy note?

lmao. how big is the clip? I went to staples and got the largest clips.... which wont hold my Note. update - Ok It does fit my phone. but its hard to get enough pressure on the clip to open the clip. so that will take some wrestling.

Hope you understand : if your carry your expensive phone in a case - no need in rubberized clip. Use any clip you have.

Ow thank you for this idea ... Now just prepare binder clips and rubber band while travelling with a rental car

Dear God, what kind of man doesn't know what a plier or wrench is.

Clever

nice!

Those are called pliers not wrenches Donald Bell

At the rate that things disappear around my house, this would be a nice cost effective solution to hold my smartphone.

Thanks

you can call it 'Smartmount'

can you clip a galaxy note

No I don't know how to do it

Yea, a wrench....

tnx very good

Wt about clock??

that's cool😃
