I did the same thing but there’s one more crucial piece that you need. Wireless charging. It can take a decent hit to your battery. I put in a magasafe charger and it’s the perfect setup. I throw it on the charger and it keeps the phone from moving around, wirelessly connects to CarPlay and charges the phone. It was a little difficult finding a MagSafe charger with a removable usb so I could buy a short cable but I found one and it was a nice clean setup without cables all over the place.
