Thats why I use those
Thats why I use those portable sandbag things. I can hide it under my seat.
Works for me...So far so good..
I have a new Toyota Highlander. I took the large black disk that came with my 550 and cut off about 1/3 of the disk. I left enough of the disk so the suction cup has room to mount on the disk. I purchased some double sided tape (3/8) the stuff that has some kind of foam between the sticky tape.
I put the tape around the top and sides of the vent next to the radio. This gives me a good view of the GPS. Works great with the Bluetooth.
If you try this besure the GPS won't interfer with the windshield wiper arm. Mine work fine.
When I remove the GPS unit I have a post-it-note that says "pick up laundry". The note covers the suction disk marks.
p.s. Windex will remove the stick tape if you need to remove the disk.

Yea they do,
but what I failed to mention was the color of my vehicle, Here in Los Angeles there are a lot of cars to look into for the disk that says, Pick up Laundry.

Hope you all have nice weekend.
