¹ Important legal note to California and Minnesota Drivers
Suction Cup Base Mounting Options:We currently offer three alternative solutions for mounting your suction cup mount in a location other than a windshield:
- The Super Grip Non Skid Base with round plastic plate, is a weighted base that can be placed on your dash without an adhesive or drilling. Simply place the base on your dash, or any flat surface and then attach the suction cup to the round plastic plate. This is perfect when you want a temporary mounting solution but the windshield mount just isn't the answer.
- The Suction Cup Adhesive Disk with round plastic plate, is a great mounting surface to attach the RAM Twist Lock Suction Cup. Simply stick the the plate to any flat surface and then attach the suction cup to the plate. This is perfect when you need to attach your suction cup mount to your car dash vertically or horizontally, rather than to your windshield.
- The Suction Cup Drink Cup Holder with round plastic plate, is a great mounting surface to attach the RAM Twist Lock Suction Cup. Simply place the base into any cup holder in your vehicle and then attach the suction cup to the plate found on top. This is perfect when you need to attach your suction cup mount away from the windshield or when you just want the mount off the dash.

IT WORKS
A good sturdy mount, perhaps a bit to sturdy. My biggest beef with it is when it is stuck on the window and there is a change in tempature from cold to warmer it falls off.
Pros: well built
Cons: comes off window with change in temperature
Recommend: YES

STURDY GPS MOUNT
Very happy with this mount.
It can be moved into pretty much every position you could want.
GPS cradle grabs my VISTA very tight. It will never fall out of the cradle.
I tried it on both the window and the dash of my 1500 RAM driving off road. The suction cup is very good on glass and would not move at all. However trying to get "suction" on the dash (which has a bit of a texture to it) was ok but not as good as on the glass. The glass suction never let go even with a minor tempature change from over night to the morning.
Pros: very flexable
Cons: little hard to get the gps back out of the cradle.
Recommend: YES

VERY GOOD MOUNT
Apart from having to clear the mounting holes with the tip of a screwdriver (sloppy but inconsequential QA) this mount absolutely is fantastic. I got it to replace the horrible Garmin suction cup mount that vibrated, moved, popped off and required those horrible breaking clips.
This thing is substantial! AND IT WORKS!
Mine is stuck to an adhesive dish on the dash of my Jeep and hasn't let me down!
Love it!
I'm ordering another one for my wife.
Pros: infinitely adjustable, substantial, works
Cons: big.
Recommend: YES
