Garmin 12 Volt Suction Mount |

I got this product a few weeks ago and it works great. I only use it on week-ends, mainly, and have gotten great results from it. I recommend it to anyone. I haven't had any problems like some of the other reviews, but I only leave it up for 4 or 5 hours at a time. I mainly travel short distances. Hope this helps someone. |

Garmin Vehicle Suction Mount |
|
Some cheap bugger stole my Garmin Vehicle Suction Mount from the car. I had no other choice to buy a new one. I had hard time finding that in a store viz Best buy, target Circuit City etc. Finally I found one but was very expensive ($57 incl tax). Searched on Americancivilwar as usual and got it for $36 and that too new. Have to save $21 and back to using GPS. |

Not The Best Solution |
You have 2 options to set up your Garmin GPS with this suction mount. Either by directly mounting it on the windshield or on top of your dash. Putting it on top of your dash requires an extra accessory. A round black plastic with an adhesive at the back that you stick to the dash. Then, opposite the adhesive is a shiny surface side where you put the suction mount. We have tried both ways and either way the GPS fell or slid off from the dashboard. It took months the first time before it happened, but once it does, the suction is not as strong as before and it will fall again. It could be a little frightening when it happens while you are driving. You might get the tendency to grab it once it fall and lose concentration on the road.
The rubber suction also leaves a black circle on your windshield when you take it off.
A much better solution is also a product by Garmin. The portable friction dashboard mount. This is very useful especially if you have multiple cars. It makes it a lot easier to transfer your GPS from one car to the other. |

Better than nothing |
|
Good thing it came free with my StreetPilot because it's sure not worth much. It's bulky and inconvenient because the cord hands down over the dash in the way and it blocks your view when it is attached to the windshield. It's better than nothing, but not by much. |

I bought this mount to replace the original one that came with the GPS unit. This unit works great and is better then the original one. |
