 Garmin Portable Friction Mount for GPS July 23, 2006
26 out of 26 found this review helpful
This product works exactly as advertised. I mounted my Nuvi 360 to it using the Automotive Mount. So far, I have used the friction mount in three different vehicles, two of them trucks. With some rather rough roads and sharp turns, the mount has not slipped or moved from it placed position. It's quick to remove the Nuvi from the mount and take it with you. The friction mount is designed to stay fixed on a lot of surfaces with different shapes. I can't imagine a situation in a vehicle where a user could not find a satifactory place to set it for viewing the GPS while driving. I hightly recommend this product. I just wish that Garmin would see fit to include it with units which need a vehicle mount. Having to buy the automotive mount as well as the friction mount is a pain after paying big bucks for the GPS unit.

It works fine with my eTrex Legend but I'd like to emphasize that the AUTOMOTIVE MOUNTING BRACKET (PART #010-10274-00) is needed in order to use this item, and must be purchased separately.
It works great January 26, 2006

This is perfect for portability. I don't have any problem with it staying in place when turning. I use it on my boat and cars. It will sit on the console, as well as the dash, if you have about 8 Sq. in. of space. You do have to buy the Automotive Mounting Bracket that actually holds the GPS unit and slides into this Portable Friction Mount.

I bought a Nuvi 660 and within a few weeks the suction mount stopped working. I think the cold weather makes the rubber suction cup too brittle to hold.
When you have $800 invested in a device the last thing you need is to have it falling off the windshield and bouncing to the floorboards!
I bought the friction mount and it works like a charm. I drive a mini-cooper and the friction mount stays put even around sharp turns. The only other option out there is to buy a glue mount and attach it to your dash. I have no desire to glue anything to the dash of my car!
As other reviewers mentioned this is great for moving from vehicle to vehicle. One warning you will need to buy the Garmin 010-10823-02 Automotive Mount to use this with your Nuvi.
 Wrong Part for Nuvi July 8, 2007
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I have a Garmin Nuvi GPS, and wanted a friction mount to make it easier to move from one car to another. This is NOT a usable part. I had even checked the Garmin site before buying to confirm the part number. After the mount arrived, and it was obvious that nothing in the Nuvi system mounting set would match it. Amazon provided the return authorization and credited my account promptly. I did go back to the Amazon listings before writing this, and found that they now list and stock 010-10908-00 which appears to be the correct part for use with the Nuvi series.
