I am actually using one that goes in the CD opening on my stock radio. Works great for my needs.

After looking at what was available I made this which is held in place with the upper head unit screw.
Obviously the "suck" of this type is having to remove the console top / radio bezel. But it doesn't damage anything other than possibly needing to notch the bezel (mine didn't need it). And it's sturdy so my phone is rock solid in it.
Unfortunately I didn't make a template of the metal bracket after I finished shaping it. Took an hour or so to get it curved just right.

No charger, my stereo only has wired carplay so it stays plugged in anyways. I have the non charging magnetic head, but it appears to be functionally the same as the charging one. That would be my choice over the autogrip.
I don’t have a ton of miles on it, but it seems at least as strong as the magnetic mount I previously had stuck on the dash and that mount never dropped the phone. Double sided tape couldn’t hold up to the summer heat here is the only reason I switched to this one.

Here is what I've done. It's worked well so far in my 04 Z06 and even in aggressive driving:
1. USB installed in place of my console mounted 12V
