    Thanks, mine will angle any way you want it, whether toward the driver or passenger, it will also go up, so I can get to the cd's, and down. It's basically on a windshield mount, just stuck right above the cd player.

    oh, i was thinking more along the lines of a static mount that slips into the CD slot, probably could work in a ball mount for added flexibility i suppose. it should be real easy to build but i known to over complicating things...

    I have a proclipusa.com holder that clips right on to the left air vent and I think it works great on my nuvi 650.

    I like it mostly for the blue tooth phone using the stereo, with voice dialing. The MP3 player is pretty nice too.
    It also comes in pretty handy when your trying to find something in a town your not familiar with.

    I use mine a lot-its handy when you need to go to a place you've never been. All you do is enter the address and it does the mapping, and tells you move for move where to go. Plus it can track your trip distances, MPH, direction, it's a very noble invention.

    Amazing! Interested in this unit but I heard navigating through its options can be a pain. Maybe a little counterintuitive... How has the unit been working for u? any complaints?

    It is for sure a pleasure! I love it but there are some things I would definitely change like how you cant save your equalizer choices etc..
