I have a g35 coupe and would like to know if theres any good all in one solution car mount kit for the iphone. One that charges the phone and everything. I would like one preferbably so that I can use NAVIGON with.
Can you guys recommend so good complete mounting kits for the car that will work well for this type of application?

I would really like to know this as well. A simple google search doesn't seem to produce as many results as I was hoping...

Not entirely 'all in one', but this is what I'm using:

A regular charger w/o the FM transmitter might be better for you if you already have an aux input for the iphone. I think this about as close as you can get and it's really just about the same amount of stuff involved with a mount like the TomTom probably will be.

I have two items on the way from Amazon to solve this for me. I'll be posting feedback once everything shows up. I bought:
1. Kensington LiquidAux. It's the version that's just a cable (with a 1/8" line in via the iPod connector).
2. Kensington Dash Car Mount. This is the "short arm" version that's more of a hard mount. I specifically did not buy the one with the 12" flexible arm as there were too many complaints of it vibrating and moving way too much.
