This is for older car models that do not have built-in navigation or bad navigation. My car is old enough to have a cassette player.
This model is made for a Toyota Yaris from 2001 and the phone inside is an S21 Ultra that would otherwise have been sitting in a drawer.
I have sacrificed the original sunvisor to get the swivel part out and modeled a new sunvisor around it. Since this car is really old it's okay to make these modifications.
So far the driving experience has improved a lot, it is a pretty decent location for a navigation system since you can focus on driving much more easily than having to look down and to the right.

I've made it out of PETG so a hot summer day shouldn't be an issue.
The battery in the phone won't be too happy with the heat either.
Nice name. I live in the Netherlands so for the next few years summers will be bearable for the most part.
Indeed something to keep in mind when living in a warmer climate. The next model could be something like magsafe.
Don't count on it. On really hot days the interior of a car sitting under the sun can reach petg's glass transition temp. I've had petg prints, also attached to the visor as it happens, soften up and deform in my car.
