My Porsche Taycan is a great car, but it has one frustrating oversight: nowhere to put your phone. The center console is all screens and haptic controls, the dashboard is minimalist by design, and the last thing I wanted to do was stick something to the interior or clip onto the air vents.

Porsche Taycan

I already owned the brilliant Kenu Stance+, an excellent magnetic phone stand that I use at my desk. The question became: how could I use it in the car without modifying anything?

Kenu Stance+

## The cup holder solution

The answer was simpler than I expected: the cup holder. It's the one universal mounting point in every car that doesn't require adhesives, clips, or modifications.

I designed a 3D printable cup holder adapter that holds the [Kenu Stance+](https://www.kenu.com/products/stance-10-in-1-smartphone-super-gadget-magsafe-universal?ref=corti.com) magnetic plate. The design has two parts:

**Custom top section**: Holds the magnetic plate that ships with the Kenu Stance+

**Universal bottom section**: Adapted from [this cup holder extender design](https://www.printables.com/model/266788-cup-holder-extender-bmw-g30?ref=corti.com) on Printables to fit standard cup holders

The top part came together quickly—designing a holder for the magnetic plate was straightforward. For the base, I didn't reinvent the wheel. I adapted an existing cup holder extender model and modified it to work with my custom top.

## How it works

The assembled, installed stand

The mount sits securely in the cup holder without any adhesives or clips. The Kenu Stance+ attaches magnetically to the plate, and your phone attaches to the Stance+ (also magnetically if you have a MagSafe case, or with the included metal ring if you don't).

The result is a completely reversible phone mount. Want to use the cup holder? Remove the mount. Switching cars? Take it with you. No residue, no marks, no permanent modifications.

## Get the files

If you have a Porsche Taycan (or any car with standard cup holders) and want a clean phone mounting solution, you can [download the 3D files on Makerworld](https://makerworld.com/en/models/1929856-kenu-stance-cup-holder-for-cars?ref=corti.com#profileId-2071550).

You'll need a Kenu Stance+ (which includes the magnetic plate) and access to a 3D printer. Print both parts, assemble, and you're done.

If the stand is a bit loose in the cup holder, use some padding material like adhesive foam rubber that you can stick to the cup holder base or - in my case - I used the top part of an old winter sock... 😜
