This is the third car I've had with AA, and the neatest solution so far.

The right combination of "handing", length and USB A and C, resulted in a cable where the A plug is slightly angled, so I couldn't use the car's own clip by the smartphone integration socket.

A couple of Blue Lounge cabledrops holds it tidy whilst giving sufficient play to connect the phone.

No charging pad so when we use AA on the longer trips the cable connection keeps the phone charged too.

I'm always interested in seeing other people's set ups, so if anyone else is, there's a 64 GB SanDisk thumbdrive for AV in the "ordinary" USB A socket below, and a 12v to USC C adapter for when the wife needs to charge her Pixel. That's not a euphemism, btw.

Very pleased with it. This is the USB A to C cable I got.
