If you don’t see it on their site…
From the video it seems that the wire is long enough and there should be another anchor screw on the right side, I was thinking that perhaps they don't mention it because it may obstruct the view of the center screen.
Unfortunately, my wife wants the phone visible (wouldn't care if we had CarPlay, but...) and on the right side ... wish I knew of a cup holder version that works w/ the R1S cup holders (so far no luck).

Thank you.
But I was hoping for a non-stick application w/ hide-away(cleaner) wire option.
Thanks anyway.
remove the trim and look at the bolts. If there’s a bolt to lock into you could probably 3d print a really solid mount out of a Nylon x CF filament. Would just need to use some modeling clay to measure exactly how the mount would exit the bolt and come over the trim and then replicate that in Fusion with the appropriate mounting bracket on the outside. Hiding the wires under the trim would be trivial.

I ran our center screen stick on mount until we made the left side mount. Installed correctly, it works great.

Using EV Sportline's left side mount, the phone should still be visible. If not, you add a double [17mm] ball socket arm to move the phone higher, like this one for example: https://a.co/d/gLaQsTK. Glancing to the left of the steering wheel shouldn't be any more or less dangerous than to the right. And if the arm and wireless charger is adjusted well, visibility around and past the driver's A-pillar shouldn't be any worse than not having a phone there at all.

Just FYI, there is a post in a different thread about the included power supply not providing enough juice to deliver the advertised 15W of wireless charging. Not sure if they have rectified it since.
