I'm a big fan of Waze and liked the position of the magnetic mount on the vent, but they seemed pretty janky. So I took the door cover off my cubby thing and put a N42 magnet in it. The 7 little screws for the door cover are #2 phillips even though they look like #1s. Put a thin metal plate to the inside of my phone case and done. Super simple and it works great. And when the phone isn't there it is super clean. If I was to do it again I would get a N45 magnet (1.75"x1/4") which are about $10 on Amazon. Metal plate was $5 and I had the 3M tape to attach the magnet = $15 and 20 mins.
