    Hey nothing fancy by any means but I had a look around at a cellphone mount for fanatec clubsport v2 wheels and only one I could find was the Iholder which cost about $55 to New Zealand.

    Had some spare perspex lying around from a couple years ago so cut a square 85mm wide by 100mm high. Put 2 holes with a couple plastic packers to fit the bolts into clubsport wheelbase then put 2 x 4mm bolts through from the back side above the last 2 bolts and put nuts on the front side to hold them tight. Finally cut a small rectangle 85mm wide by about 20-25mm high and drilled 2 holes in it for those 4mm bolts to go through and hold the front of your cellphone tightly in place. I didn't use any nuts for this as it seems to hold it fine in place. Finally I cut the bolts down to make sure they didn't interfere with any cabling on my wheel.

    Working cellphone mount which cost me nothing as I had the parts lying around but otherwise wouldn't cost much at all to make and works a treat

    Just make sure you cut everything nice and square. I used a jigsaw for the cutting.

    Great idea @Boomslangnz, perspex is such a versatile material and is easy to work with.

    With my tablet mount I just bent some perspex with a heat gun and mounted it next to the Fanatec wheel using some aluminum strip to sandwich it. That way I can just throw whatever tablet I want over it, as I have a number of them.
