Default GPS mounting for LHS

hey all

I have a 2001 chrysler LHS. I'm wondering what kind of mounting options
are there for a GPS. I currently have a Magellan 1470 mounted on the
windshield just underneath the mirror, I prefer it mounted somewhere on
the dashboard, not on the windshield.

You might also want to post your question on one of the forums he
http://300mclub.org/forums/index.php?

I'd say put it in the Performance and Mods, Audio System Upgrades, or
All Around Topics forums.

People there have the answers on this type of thing for the LH cars.

Default GPS mounting for LHS

i use one like this in my 96 LHS, and use the hell out of it, since i am on
the road all day, every day. i run a Magellan maestro and this mount works
fine. i started first looking locally at radio shack and such and found this
style of mount but damn they were expensive!! (30 bucks or more i think).

Here's one from Magellan . website shows it for the roadmate as well and i
think that's probably right since all the Magellan's have the same basic
mounting style on the rear of the housing.

i don't blame you for wanting to mount it elsewhere. personally don't like
things on the windshield since it blocks part of my field of vision and also
in some states its not legal either.

How about a non-skid, friction,dash mount?

um, I'm undecided about that.... putting the gps on top of the dashboard.

I was thinking something somewhere on front of the dashboard or in that
empty space between the radio/AC & the cigarette outlet.
