+Crid Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) Other people have posted pictures of their inexpensive GPSr car mounts, so I thought I'd post mine. All it took was three clothes pegs and a hair band... Two clothes pegs go in the air vent (right-hand drive Nissan Almera), to stop the GPSr sliding sideways when I go around corners. The vent is closed, just to be on the safe side. On the back of the GPSr, I attach the hair band to the battery panel release (it's never come undone while driving, it takes a good strong 90 degree twist to undo it). The third clothes peg clips on to the hair band The clothes peg on the hair band clips to the upper vent... ...and the GPSr hangs down over the lower vent Cheap and cheerful, but it does the job very nicely. It's in an easy-to-reach spot and the 76CSx is easy to operate while driving without being distracted too much (nice big buttons). Edited October 16, 2007 by Crid Quote Link to comment

+sbell111 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I don't care for vent mounts. I've seen two many vents break over the years. Quote Link to comment
+Travelinmatt76 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Hey, your steering wheel is on the wrong side! I bet that joke gets old. I usually wedge mine in between the dash and the windshield. It stays untill I'm on a bumpy road. Quote Link to comment
