Never trust those quick-release dash mounts that rely on pressure (squeezing the phone tight enough to hold it in). Even if it squeezed hard enough to never let the phone fall, you're probably damaging the body with all that pressure (sliding mechanism isn't made to withstand that).

Yea, in retrospect, it may have not been such a great idea, but it really came in handy. I found one picture of the mount on my bike (kinda dark), but you can see how it was. (See attached image)
