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.

Garmin Friction Mount November 24, 2009
P.A.M.
Aabsolutely love this ietm. Makes it so easy to take down and store when shopping. I like the fact that there are no marks on the windshield announcing something has been placed there.
works great November 24, 2009
Sandra Nickols (San Pablo, CA)
this friction mount is much improved over previous models. So far it has stayed put with no creeping across the dash. The only movement came when slamming on the brakes to avoid idiot driver.
 Starts off great and gets slippery after a few months November 24, 2009
ElliotK (GA)
I have had several of these and they all start out great but the bottom smooths out after a while and the unit slips all over the place. It becomes very dangerous to use. Garmin has even replaced two at no charge and the new ones did the same thing. I like all the other features of the mount but the slipping problem makes it dangerous and eventually not usable.
Great item November 22, 2009
Rose Hernandez (NY, USA)
I just love the Garmin Friction Mount. No more trying to hold
on to the GPS.
I was a skeptic, now I'm a believer. November 22, 2009
Philip Debecker (Connecticut, USA)
I was a little bit skeptical, but after having my window smashed and previous GPS stolen a few months ago I decided to get this along with my Nuvi 780. As it turns out, it works exactly as advertised, and I couldn't be happier with it. The pad sits on my 2008 Accord's dash perfectly, and seriously, this thing stays put. I love the fact that I can just unplug the power from the car and take the whole thing with me, it doesn't leave marks on my windshield, and unlike the suction cup solution it never just falls onto the dash by itself.
One caution: it is important to remember to slide the lever on the base to the "locked" position once you get it adjusted the way you want. I initially didn't do this, and I thought it kind of wobbled a bit and was too easy to turn the screen while touching it. Then I remembered to flip the lever, and once I did that I was amazed by just how stable it is. No amount of button pushing, going over bumps, turns, etc, will dislodge the friction pad or move the screen.
Also, since I bought this with "Frustration-Free Packaging": thank you Amazon for this service. The item is still shipped securely, but now I don't have to deal with that horrific plastic armored stuff.
