I started thinking ( uh oh ! ) about the OEM cup holders. I find that when I use my smartphone for GPS it works perfect but gets warm/near hot. I'm thinking about fabbing a " puck " out of aluminum that will fit into the cup holder. The puck would have a groove cut into it. In that groove would be a flat plate positioned either vertical or canted back at a slight angle. Onto that plate would be some kind of device to either hold my phone or a conventional GPS. With the AC on the cold air would hit the back of the plate and cool the electronic device. Anyone done this ? I think it's a decent idea, I for one don't care for sticking a GPS on the glass with suction cup and this solution brings the device closer to your sight line. I'll have to see what I can come up with.
