Abstract
A holder for a mobile telephone headset includes a base and arm members extending outwardly from the base with a receiving member attached to ends of the arm members. The receiving member includes spaced apart upright members forming a gap for loosely receiving an ear bud of the mobile telephone headset. A clip may be removably attached to the base for removably securing the holder to a support structure within a motor vehicle. The holder further includes illumination for locating it or the headset in a darkened environment. Yet further, the arm members are spaced apart to form an opening sufficient for receiving an ear hook of the headset, the holder thus providing ease for a user to safely store the mobile telephone headset.
