Review on 🚘 ARKON GN079WD Replacement Windshield Dashboard Suction Mount Pedestal with 3-Inch Arm for Garmin nuvi GPS - Upgrade or Add-On by Nikith Brewster

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very pleased, this is exactly how Garmin should have made its suction cup mount!

Adds versatility in where you can position a Garmin GPS that Garmin suction cup mounts cannot. a lever to make room for the ring that the ball snaps into. This greatly increases the distance the GPS can rotate on the ball, increasing the angle at which the GPS can be positioned. Second, of course, is the adjustable lever. In combination with the additional swivel stroke, it simply opens up all possible positions on the dashboard or windshield. There is a deeper notch on the underside of the base than the Garmin mount, which pulls the cup further into the base, increasing the suction and holding power of this mount. This, along with the softer and more flexible material the cup is made of, makes this piece really appealing. On a smooth surface, I found that by simply pressing down on the mount without even clicking the locking lever, the mount already locks itself. When you flip the lever to increase suction, it locks securely into place. This mount was used on a 2013 Honda Accord and a 2014 Chevy Cruze without the need for the included adhesive washer.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive
