|
Keep your nüvi in place with this portable friction mount. It'll keep everything in plain sight when you need it and out of the way when you don't. Place the mount on any stable surface, and adjust the position of your GPS to your liking. The friction mount weighs enough to keep your device put on the dash, even when sudden maneuvers are necessary. It's ideal for states in which the use of windshield suction mounts is illegal. In addition to its convenience, you can quickly place your GPS out of sight, and without leaving any residue on the windshield, both handy for any potential prying eyes. Compatible Garmin Models

do not buy from beach camera |
Do not waste your money buying this from BeachCamera. They will not send you the product as shown (they will send you the beanbag, but not the part that you actually attach to the GPS.)
I don't know if this is the case every time, but in mine they conveniently did not include an invoice either, so when I attempted to resolve this with them I was told there was "nothing I could do." They don't have invoices on file for the products they've sold? Seems shady...
Looks like a good product, but I cannot tell until I purchase the rest of it from a different company. |

Worth Having |
I would agree with most of the positive comments others have made about this item. For me, it is certainly much better than windshield mounting as I was never able to find a spot that was close enough to use comfortably but still allow safe outward vision (two-seater convertible, small windshield). This thing solved that problem for me.
That said, with sharp turns and the occasional pothole, it will move around on my dash a little bit - my dash has a pebbled finish and very little in the way of flatness. I am certain this beanbag would become a projectile during a crash, at least in my vehicle. I'm keeping it nonetheless. |

GET THIS!! |
|
This is the only sensible way to use your GPS in your car! I was skeptical but I bought it here on Cooltechelectronics.com sold by Beach Camera. The price was right, and free shipping and no sales tax, other places like the major retail electronics outlets are pricing this item between $24.99-$39.99. The frustration free packaging is great!! Just take the item out of the box, take the poly bag off and you're set. I have a new car and might trade it in the future so I don't want any glue residue left on dash, also the suction cup mount for the windsheild leaves a ring on the windsheild that just invites theives to break in to the car. Used this item last weekend on a road trip of various road types, this thing stays put and at just below eye level the Garmin Portable Friction Mount has got it all over the other types of GPS mounts!!! Buy it...you will be glad you did!!! |

Works well |
|
Add me to the list of satisfied customers for this product. I've used the cup to my nuvi, but was shelved in favor of the friction device. I often move my Nuvi between cars, making it a very easy process. There are enough grip on the mountain to prevent sliding and sufficient for adequate finger pressure on the touch screen to make selections without disrupting the GPS position. You can rotate the shaft 360 degrees, and even remove the stem to facilitate packaging, if you're a traveler like me who use the nüvi into different rental cars. |

Great addition for GPS |
|
This is a wonderful option/improvement to the windshield mounted device that comes with the GPS unit. Just remember - you have to have the tray that came with your GPS to make the friction mount work. |
