Still Uses Suction Mount

If I understand this unit, it still uses the original suction mount to adhere to a disk on the friction pad. For not much more, you can get rid of that weak link.

I have one and it works

I have one and it works great. The suction cup is a problem but for $12 it is a great buy.

Go for the Garmin one

I recommend the Garmin one just because you've invested so much into a navigation unit. Why nickel and dime how it is secured on your vehicle.
Just my two cents.

The Real Garmin Friction Mount is the Mount that should come with all Garmins...It is the best.
