Qi Wireless charging

So I want to mount my nexus with a qi wireless charger, so I don't have to fumble with cables.

The three spots that seem easiest are the left pillar, the center vents, and the CD player. Window mounts seem impractical (the window is so far away), and I have an unjustified prejudice against dash mounts.

Has anyone found a good Qi wireless charger that mounts well on the Fit?

I thought about mounting the nexus branded charger in a cup holder and run a tap to the aux power port under the radio. Specifically, the front of the two cup holders by the drivers right elbow. It'd go sliding in an emergency stop or something, but its got a rubber trippy ring around the induction coil to somewhat hold it in place.

Out of curiosity, which Nexus do you use?

iOttie Easy Flex Wireless Qi Standard Charging Car Mount

I want to add, that I was looking for a place to mount a Qi charger mount, as I didn't want to put it on dash because I was going to get a dashmat.

I bought the iOttie Easy Flex Wireless Qi Standard Charging Car Mount, and mounted it just above the cigarette lighter and below AC button, an the dash that slopes down, just to left of automatic shifter.

The IOttie silicone suction cup sticks well onto the textured dash material.

It is close to the 12v outlet, so now long wire runs. it's a tight fit, and I sometimes bump it when reaching for shifter. It has several swivel points to adjust where you want it. I like it.

Talking

The Air Dock Wireless Qi Charger for Android & iPhone:

I found this. If you don't want anything that interfere with resell value a cd mount if the best option to go(imo) looks cool in video at least but is way to expensive. A tried to mounted in my imagination and the cd is the best way to go. Not to far no to close. It is just ideal.

Tell us back if you find something and how the set up went.
