+Team BlackZ Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 Just got my 60CS. This thing is nice! What car mount should I get? There are a few to choose from. I don't think I would have any luck sticking something to the dash. Is that beanbag mount any good? Thanks Quote Link to comment
+RocketMan Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 (edited) I have always used the suction cup windshield mount with my Vista and I have been pleased with it. Sometimes it is hard to get a “good stick” initially, but once it is stuck on properly, it stays on very well (even when doing some intense off-roading). I have had it stay on the windshield for a whole week while on vacation. I bought the suction cup mount for my 60cs. I will find out how it works when I get the 60cs tomorrow.

thcri Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 The windshield suction has been the best for me. murph Quote Link to comment
JumpinJoe Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 It will only work on certain cars but I made one myself. It works great and the location is perfect for my needs. Cost me $0 http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthrea...8&highlight=gps Quote Link to comment

+sk8rdi16 Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 I have been using the friction base mount for a while, just took it on a 16hr round trip to Memphis (from south MS) with a lot of driving up there. It worked GREAT on the dash of a 2000 Xterra. I also use it just to 'display' the unit on my desk!! Great buy! Quote Link to comment
