Garmin Portable Friction Mount

Product description

 

Securely mount your GPS to a surface within your car with this Deluxe Portable Friction Mount with Mounting Arm. No installation is required.

Garmin and Amazon.com have teamed up to offer this item in Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging, a recyclable, easy-to-open alternative to traditional packaging. Products in Frustration-Free Packaging are exactly the same--we've just streamlined the packaging. A Frustration-Free Package comes without wire ties, hard plastic "clamshell" casings, and plastic bindings. It's designed to be opened without the use of a box cutter or knife and will protect your product just as well as traditional packaging. This item ships in its own box, without the need for an additional shipping box. Learn more about Frustration-Free Packaging.

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. The arm attachment connects directly to your GPS device, and once you've adjusted it to your liking, locks into place. Avoid the "wing around the windshield" syndrome that accompanies windshield mounts.

Perfect for locales where window-mounting is prohibited or those who simply prefer a quick way to mount/unmount their nüvi/StreetPilot device.

    « Works Like A Charm »
    Does exactly what it says. Stays in place. It's not plastic so it won't break. Happy I went with this one.

    One drawback is to note that the dashboard in your car may shake differently than your windshield does as you go over rough surfaces. This difference in movement if it occurs may be something you will notice in your Garmin. But this isn't a product defect, it is just something to be aware of as you are mounting your unit to a different component on your vehicle . But it really isn't a big deal, it is just a minor issue. This items works as advertised and just fine for the two Garmin models I've tried it on. I easily adjusts up and down and side to side. It is also easy to set up and sits snugly and securely on top of the dashboard in your vehicle.

    « A Lifesaver »
    I recently moved and am heavily dependent on my GPS. This device hugs the dashboard and has not fallen off. Those that stick to the window tend to dry up in hot weather and dump the GPS on the floor. It is easy to remove from the dashboard at each stop and replaces easily when I start the next leg of my trip. This is important as I would not be able to get home from some of the places I have visited if the device was stolen.

    « Excellent replacement »
    This is an excellent replacement for the windshield mount.
    I do not see the GPS fallen on the floor of the car every morning in summer and Winter.
    My suction cup would just not hold on any day with extreme weather.
    I got the idea of buying this because my Avis rental had one of these.
    And it is a good replacement. It fits right on my dashboard.
