5 out of 5 stars Wish this came with the Garmin   August 5, 2010
T. L. OCONNOR (Pittsburgh, PA USA)
I bought this after the suction mount stopped working - it kept falling off the window. This is a great little product. I wish it came with the GPS. It's easy to use, and I like the fact that the GPS is now out of the windshield - improving visibility.


3 out of 5 stars OK for the price   July 29, 2010

It does what is said on the description.
the 2 clamps holding is slightly loose fit, it take some time to learn how to use it.
you can't use this for some of the cars where the AC vents are slightly at an angle.
most of the old cars this will fit.



5 out of 5 stars Wonderful cheap little product   July 28, 2010

For a few bucks, this product anchors my Garmin to the my car's air vent. No obstruction of view, no need to fear the sun melting that suction cup.


3 out of 5 stars Nice, but not perfect   June 13, 2010
M. Kusumoto (CA USA)
These are nice for trips because you can easily view the Garmin GPS without the glare of the car windshield.

It has one problem. The two legs that mount on to the air vent slide on and off very easy. That means you can lose them one of them very easily if you're in a hurry to put the GPS away in the glove compartment or back in the case. I learned that the hard way and had to buy another whole unit.

I figured out an easy solution. I bought a small plastic screw, bolt and washer from my ACE hardware store and mounted it in slot between the two legs. Now the legs don't come off and I don't have to worry about losing them.



3 out of 5 stars GPS Vent Mount Works   June 12, 2010
Westwind "Bill" (Ohio)
The vent mount for the Garmin Nuvi works, but it is a bit tricky to install and remove. I would suggest removing it when parking your vehicle because it could tip off thieves that you have a GPS unit in the car. I had to use a small screwdriver to help unhook the mount from the vent. When doing this, you have to be careful not to damage the louvers in your vent.

The support arm at the bottom of the unit just rests on the vent. When I hit several bumps while driving it slipped off and caused the GPG to tilt down. I had to hold the vent mount in place while driving over a bumpy stretch of road.

The manufacturer did not include assembly and installation instructions with the vent mount. I had to contact the vendor, who promptly e-mailed instructions, including a video, showing how to mount the unit in the car vent. I would give the seller 5 stars for prompt tech support, but only 3 stars for the vent mount itself.
