I'm trying to find an effective phone holder for a long time. I'd tried several holder models and I think I finally found a solution.
I bought a baseus wireless charger and holder with three part mounting bracket.
This doesn't solve my problem because of the dashboards shape of ranger. Than I find a product from England which name Sugru and I modified it a little bit to mount the holder much stronger than before. You don't need to glue or drill something in the car. Just make the brackets legs longer with sugru or something like sugru, and mount it.

I hope this helps someone who need something like this.

I have been using this one for over a year now.
Adjusts up, down, left & right.
Quick to remove and install, press a tab and done.
Mounts in CD slot and CD still plays.

After spotify, I really forget the cd's...
Thanks RossPat, I didn't see this mount option but I don't want to loose my connection with the climate buttons either.

I really don't understand why the car companies don't put a good place for the cell phones. If thats because the safety, I don't see much difference between playin with the car's touch panel or the cell phone while driving. Both of them are dangerous.

All controls are easily accessible and usable.
Camera angle makes it look different .
