(More customer reviews)In my quest for the perfect GPS mount, I've tried the vent clip, the beanbag mount, the gooseneck suction mount, and out of desperation, started thinking about making my own cupholder mount.
The Handstands Sticky Pad GPS mount is the perfect solution. It's small, flat, lightweight, portable, and not an eyesore. The top has a patterned surface and reminds me of a silicone potholder.There's a smooth plastic disk on which you attach the GPS' suction cup. The underside is sticky silicone that adheres to the dash. It leaves no residue when removed.
Handstands recommends use on vinyl dashboards only. If the pad loses stickiness, a soap and water rinse will restore it. To prevent dust from sticking to it during storage, I leave it on the plastic liner it was packaged with.
I use it with my 3.5" nuvi 255, and it performs well, with zero tipping, tilting or movement, of the pad or the GPS.
There may be some conditions under which it might not do as well. Because the friction comes solely from the silicone underside, I could see it possibly losing grip under the following conditions: dirty pad, heavy or large GPS unit with mount, a highly sloped dashboard, or frigid weather.
Measures about 7.25"W x 8"L x 1/8"H (1/4"H at the disc). 3.25" disc diameter.Weighs only 5.5 oz. You can choose whatever color you want -- so long as it's black!I bought mine for $4.99+ shipping, elsewhere.
December 2009 update:
I successfully used this on a cold dashboard that had a layer of Armorall on it. Not even dust would stick to that. But the Sticky Mount stayed stuck in a 200 mile trip, and didn't budge an inch. I like it!
