Try ProClip. It's the best car mounting system ever. Expensive but worth it!

When you use the iOttie mount, does the phone automatically switch to "car dock" mode?
Quick question on the iOttie. Can you move the "feet" on the bottom so that you can use an Aux cable in the headphone jack?
Also, how does the "gel base" work in cold weather? I'm from Wisconsin and the silly suction cups drop off the glass overnight because it gets so darn cold...and any moisture between the plastic suction cup and the glass freezes and expands.

Hello qz0xr3,
Not sure what you are identifying as "care dock" mode specifically when it comes to the LG G2, only speaking from my experience with my G2, there is no "car dock" mode within the G2, that I have found.
I see from your profile that you have a S2 Galaxy from Samsung, so maybe the S2 has something identified with that device as "car dock" mode? I can't comment about the S2.
This particular iOttie mount , does not initiate any type of "mode" within my G2 when mounted in this mount, nor are there any electrical connections as part of this mount at all. It is simply a mount for securely holding your device. Any/all "modes" or device activity you may want to initiate with your device while in this iOttie mount must originate from "other than the mount itself". (the physical holding configuration of your device while using this iOttie mount does allow for some external connections to be made to the device while in this mount, such as an external micro USB connection or earbuds, but again, the mount is only "a device mount" that holds your device, nothing more)
This particular iOttie mount is great for my LG G2, I have been using it now for about 2 months. Its mount to my vehicle's center console has never failed once, and the connection method of the mount to the device itself is very secure and easy to insert and remove from.
Price is less at some online retailers such as Amazon or Walmart, versus the manufacturers website listed below.

Hope this answers your question.

Hi Tahoe-Runner,
Thanks for the response and my apologies if my question wasn't clear. You're right, currently, I have a Galaxy S2, but am looking at buying the LG G2 phone. With my Samsung phone, I use a Samsung mount. When the phone is mounted, it automatically launches "car mode", which among other things means that incoming text messages are read back to you, instead of the driver having to physically access the message to read it. I had seen on LG's website that they offer a navigation mount Navigation Mount for the Verizon LG G2, (VS980) | LG USA and according to the website, the phone "Automatically Launches Car mode When the Handset is Attached". My assumption was that meant that the G2 had a similar feature when mounted.
In any event, thanks again for the reply. The G2 sounds like a great phone.
Thanks Tahoe-runner. I just ordered so, I'll report back on those questions you couldn't answer!

@Tahoe-Runner slightly off topic, but the Verizon G2 does support Isis tap and pay. Also thanks for the link, that looks like a good car dock.
Hi scottcraft,
(yep, off topic here, but worthwhile info)
Thanks for your post regarding the Verizon G2 supporting ISIS and Tap & Pay.
(lots of speculation, theory, and wrong information out there, also lots of people out there who are reporting on this subject who don't have personal experience with the G2 and the Tap & Pay system, and therefore please, only accurate information and clarification is needed for "all" G2 users)
Some Questions:
1- Are you positively confirming, beyond the shadow of a doubt, through your own personal experience with your Verizon LG G2, that the current Verizon USA version of the LG G2, "today", does in fact work with the Tap & Pay system of ISIS?
2 - If "yes" to number 1, What version OS does your Verizon G2 currently have installed that works with ISIS?
3 - What is your experience like with ISIS and the Tap & Pay system on your personal Verizon LG G2?
Since we are off-subject with this topic at this string,
Please, only answers that are specific and relevant to these three questions are very much appreciated.
No speculation please, we've seen enough of that with "this" topic of Tap & Pay and the LG G2.
Cheers,
TahoeRunner

Yes, I've used Isis to tap and pay at McDonald's and CVS with my G2. I'll attach a screenshot of my os version.
It seems fairly easy to use. I wish Isis supported more debit cards though. Also tap to pay terminals are limited here in southwest Louisiana. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/12/hutyseby.jpg
Hi scottcraft,
Thanks for your info regarding your Verizon G2 and using it with ISIS Tap and Pay. This is good news.
However you did not post what "software Android version operating system" are you running on your G2 that uses Tap and Pay?
I think you posted your "hardware" info by mistake.
thanks,
