where to place cell phone holder?? Type??

Hi,
I'm new here, I just bought a 2005 Civic coupe SE.
I have a samsung flip phone.
This may sound kinda dumb, but I was wondering where a good place would be for a cell phone holder?? Any idea for a good type of phone holder??
Maybe someone has a mod of sorts for their cell holder??

thanks for any input.

M

^ To answer his question the SE stands for special edition and it could be an lx or an ex. Basically it just comes with a spoiler, different wheels, leather wrapped steering wheel, and a 6 disc in dash cd player.

how about get a 5 dollar belt clip and put it on your belt or in your pocket....also an additional idea is to turn it off too while you're driving....honestly if you need to be on the phone that much...leave the car at home and USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION!!!!!


EDIT: not trying to be a butt or anything but its both dangerous and sometimes illegal to have your cell on you in your car...if anything I tell whoever I'm talking to "I'll call you back when I get to where I need to be..."

I open the pocket door under my stereo and set my phone on the door. That way I can see the phone screen light up when my stereo is too high to hear my phone ring.

well, IF you used that one, you've wasted your money. looking at the exchange rate, you're spending about $8-$10 for that. Guess what? you can do it for about a dollar. just got to the dollar tree, or any dollar store, and find some VELCRO!

Lol. No I didnt buy that one. its a pic of one. And velcro is gay. This is a thin magnet. It cost me .01 plus $5.99 and I got a pack of three with 6 backings
