I bought this one from a website, sure I've seen them on Amazon too
Was about 20 bucks.
Ram mounts are very expensive where I am, I wanted the U shaped tank mount but neither fit the Rebel, so this suited me.
Has USB, on off switch, Bar & mirror mount included.

I have a spigen mount that I bought off of ebay for $9.
Works perfectly and hasn't budged while riding over bumpy roads and highway speeds at 70mph+.
Works well with the utility socket in the headlight.

I probably didn't state the right terminolgy for the acsessory plug, but this is it in the pic
It's the black plug left to the white one.
Unclip the blank already inserted. You will need to source 2 pins to fit into the blank one.
I got my pins from a shop that installs radios, ICE etc, they let me sift through some old looms for the pins.
There is a name for the plug/pins which I've forgotten.
If you use this socket to power your phone or Nav you won't drain the battery, as it should power off when the ignition is turned off.
If you use direct wiring to the battery using a USB without a switch it will drain the battery if the bikes laid up for several days. I'm sure many of you guys already know this.
There is a member who's already done this with some good pics to show and explains well but Alzheimer's kicking in,the names gone.

Ah, I was referring to the 12v auxiliary socket add on from Honda that plugs in by the headlight.
Wouldn't it be easier to just do that instead of wiring a plug directly for a phone/navigation?

I got this on and it is amazing.

That's a very neat & tidy mount, I like it.
Assuming there are more phone sizes/models other than iPhone that fit?

Thanks for your comments & pictures,
I have mine on the left side as well. Here are some pics of my setup:
Techmount 4-Techgripper & Techmount handlebar (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M06871Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T1_4QOGzb67282W6)
As it is just a straight post with an inch ball, I cannot tilt it to the side. The placement is ideal, although it blocks the gas gauge a bit and it is also flush on top of the speedometer.

It is a bike mount. Does it hold well in speed?
Twizzian, it is mainly an iPhone product but they do offer a universal adapter you can stick on the phone/phone case. It will stick out

Just personal preference I think.
I like my camera on the left side so that's why my x-mount is on the right.
When I'm bored I'll switched them around.
True Lyoko' Sat Nat function would be easier with the left hand.

Being right-handed, makes sense to me to put it closer to my right hand.
