I love it. It has not come loose from my dashboard since the day I purchased it. It holds the phone tightly even as I drive through the county roads. I recommend it!

I have only tried to mount it on the dashboard of my car. Everytime I use it and try to mount it on my dashboard, it won't stay there. In hindsight, I should have returned this but I threw away the box.

There's nothing on it for that purpose but double sided tape or Velcro should do it. I see them on car dashes often so that must work well enough

My Trailblazer has a slightly curved dashboard top also along groves all over the surface. To my surprise, it stuck to the surface and still has not come off even with this hot weather. As I previously mentioned, just make sure you wipe the surface down (I used Windex) and let it dry before you mount.

Thanks so much for your advice! I drove myself nuts for several days trying to figure out how to attach the nuvi to the mount and your method plus a consumer-posted photo of the friction mount on Amazon finally did the trick. Garmin should be ashamed of itself for not providing directions.

I have a Toyota Sienna with a curved dash. I mounted about six month ago or more when I bought it and it never fell off. Just clean and dry the area where you plan to mount it. Is a great product.

I'm not sure what you mean by dash mat, but I'd think a beanbag mount should still work. I've also found that placing the GPS just under the rearview mirror works well for me -- allows me to glance at the unit while checking the rearview mirror and doesn't block much area (but Cal and Minn don't allow it, and since I live in Cal I ended up with a beanbag mount). The vent mount (very inexpensive) has received some good reviews (I haven't used it), but it's priced at a point where you could try it to see if you like it (you won't be out much money, plus you can return it if it doesn't work). Of course you could go whole-hog and get a custom mount from ProClip or a couple of other gps mount manufacturers, but you're looking at 50 or 60 bucks or more).

You can use the disc with red "chassis paste" included to stick to a textured dashboard and then attach the suction cup to the disc. The suction cup itself needs a flat surface.

This mount should be able to work on curved and sloping surfaces and the included pegs help to stabilize and level the mount. We have a 30-day return policy in the event it isn't compatible with your vehicle. For further assistance, please email support@satechi.com. Thank you, Satechi Technical Support

Well, there should be a little plastic thingy somehow attached to your GPS, and that sticks to the glassy area of the dashboard mount, the same way your GPS gets attached to your rear windshield.

I thought I'd read that CA amended that rule in 2009 and drivers could use mounts as long as they were clearly on the left half of the windshield? Might want to look into that.Regardless, the best friction mount I've tried (and I've tried 4 now) is the Gilsson found here:Gilsson UBM Portable Car Non-Skid Friction Beanbag Dashboard Mount for Garmin, TomTom, Magellan and moreIt's a bit ugly, but it's very flexible and heavy where most of the others are inflexible and too light to really do the job.

Hi steve i have the same one. U shud make your own mounting brackets as the ones spplied are inadequate. U shud use four brackets to make it stable. Sorry im having the same problem. Good luck. Jim

This has some sort of sticky base that once remove can not be placed back on something. The direction tell to use a fine string to pull of the piece. I am only going to use it if my mount will not stay on my dash. So far the rubber base is working, so I will not use the adaper plate

I would be happy to answer if you reword your question. I still have the mount and love it, so I can check and possibly give you pictures to answer your question graphically

It should work just fine. Just be sure that when you put the base on you clean the surface of your dash super good and then let the base stay on the dash without the arm or anything for a full day or more. I messed up the first time and it didn't hold but now I have two. They really do work great, you will be happy.

Get the 'bean bag' dash mount that Amazon sells - worth every penny! http://tinyurl.com/nzzcrvx
