- Easy to remove stays put
We drove 3500 miles and this never moved. It is easy to take off and put in the trunk when parked or move to a different car. I would never go back to the sticky dashboard mount.

- Solid, Stable Mounting Option for all Garmin NUVI GPS models
I was using the Garmin supplied glass suction-cup mount but grew weary of having to peel it off (and deal with the resulting dirty ring) every time I moved my Nuvi. This mount makes it easy to move the entire GPS unit out of the sun and prying eyes. It's a real plus if you move your GPS between vehicles. It's stable, and doesn't slide around, even with spirited driving. It's heavy enough to hold my Nuvi while I poke at the screen, all with minimal movement.

Note- In some states (California for sure), the use of any mount that attaches directly to the glass is prohibited, making the Garmin Portable Friction Dashboard Mount a necessity.

- Great GPS Accessory
This is a wonderful product. Easy to attach. Stays securely on front dash. No marks left on windows for nosy thieves!!! Although it was a trifle cheaper elsewhere, I felt more secure with Amazon!

- Fabulous
I have a Garmin C550 but the windshield suction mount kept failing and the Garmin kept falling to the car floor. I was very concerned that falling would permanently damage this piece of equipment. I had been driving with the machine in my lap which didn't work well when I was told about this dashboard mount. It's not a mount really, in the way I would consider it a mount. It's more of a weight. It moves easily from one car to another and holds the computer securely for normal driving. I am extremely happy with it and find that it's sitting on the dashboard is less intrusive in my field of vision than being attached to the windshield. Now if we can get Garmin to make a vehicle power cable that doesn't unscrew over time and end up without the fuse, silver tip and end piece in the cord.

- Garmin Friction Mount For Nuvi and StreetPilot - Great Performance, Somewhat Large
The Garmin Portable Friction Dashboard Mount for Nüvi Series and StreetPilot C5XX Series GPS Navigators (C530, C550 and C580)gives you great performance if you need a dashboard mount for your Nuvi or StreetPilot C500 series GPS.

For several years, I have gotten by with the window mounts included with my Garmin Nuvi GPS units. But there are many reasons to consider this unit. Leaving your window mount attached when you park is like advertising to thieves that you have a GPS unit *somewhere* in your car. And some states have passed laws against window mounts. So I eventually gave in, and after a very long time using this mount I am very surprised and pleased with the performance.

Pros:
+ Great performing unit, and seems durable after several years use
+ Very stable during driving, grips the dash very well
+ Fit's Garmin nuvi and streetpilot models
+ Easy to remove from and replace on your dash
+ Easy to swap between GPS units

Cons:
- Somewhat large, though acceptable considering the performance
- List price is somewhat high, but average price is now better

For starters, attaching your GPS unit is very simple. The ball end fits into the same back piece that the window mount goes into. I've tried this unit out with the Garmin StreetPilot c580 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator, Garmin nüvi 660 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator, Garmin nüvi 350 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator and the Garmin nüvi 200 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator. So it's easy to use them interchangeably. It's also pretty easy to adjust or movie this guy.

Of course the other benefit with this friction mount is being able to quickly remove it from you dash and conceal the unit when you are driving.

But the absolute biggest surprise about this mount has to be how stable it is. Even sitting on the front of the dash, it has yet to budge on me while I'm driving. The four sides of the mount are filled with sand or pellets of some kind that really add a lot of weight. While the bottom is soft it somehow grips the dash very well.

But the stability is also the source of a small con. This thing is not what one would consider compact. I didn't really deduct for that alone, because it's well worth the trade off considering how stable it is. But if you have a small dash, you might want to see this in person before you order it.

The other con is that the list price is somewhat high, but the average price here has come down to earth over time. So ultimately, it's the only option you have in friction mounts that I am aware of. So if you need a window mount for your Nuvi or Streetpilot, this is the one.

Enjoy.
