I am looking to replace my nuvi 2689 and Dashcam with the above unit.
I use a dash mount for the nuvi as in some states it is illegal to attach items to your windshield. My dash cam is mounted on the back of my rear view mirror.
Is there a dash mount that you can purchase for the Drive Assist 51 or any other GPS with Dashcam?.
DriveAssist 51 mount.
It uses the standard Garmin "Ball" mounts, so you should be able to use it with the friction (bean bag) type mounts. Click on the "Mounts" category of the "Accessories" tab on the Garmin website listing: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/552032#accessories
I personally would not buy a Garmin with a built in Dash Cam because it restricts the mounting positions/options. But some folks like them.

I am currently using this device with the "Ball Mount" and I love it...I place my beanbag in the left corner of the dasdboard

You can buy flat round metal/plastic disks that glue/tape onto the top of your dash. They are inexpensive and available on line. Then just use the original suction cup on your garmin mount to attach it. That is what I use and it works well. Nothing attached to the windshield.
