Amazon.com Product Description 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.
Garmin Portable Friction Mount - Awesome!!!September 3, 2010 biglo The Garmin Portable Friction Mount is awesome. It is stable, durable, and does not slide on the dash board on turns.
PerfectSeptember 3, 2010 T. Jewell(Edmond, OK) I bought this item after my suction cup mount stopped sticking. Wouldn't you know it, the day after I ordered this, the suction cup mount gave out while I was driving & dropped my gps onto the middle console of my car. It hit hard enough to break the on/off switch. Really ticked me off! Not only was my gps broken, but I was now lost downtown. Thankfully my gps unit was replaced & I immediately put its suction cup out of sight. No way will I use that again. This friction mount is perfect. It's easy to use, easy to move whenever needed, stays put, & I'm not scared of it sending my gps unit flying.
Works Like A CharmSeptember 3, 2010 Ms Echo Does exactly what it says. Stays in place. It's not plastic so it won't break. Happy I went with this one.
Works really wellSeptember 2, 2010 Mo Enteshari 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 LifesaverSeptember 2, 2010 R. Springer(St. Louis) 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.
