User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Finally, a solution for my car

I hate a GPS mounted on the windshield and I have been trying different types of vent mounts for my Pontiac Grand Prix for quite a while. Most vent mounts are either too short for the vent or don’t have good grip. This unit is perfect. It holds my Garmin 855 tight without having to create extra support of it.

3 Stars Fits my Corvette but flops in my Lexus.

I purchased the IG-A05 dashboard vent mount for my Garmin nuvi GPS so I could move it between my cars and rental cars when I travel. The design is ingenious. The two clips slide in a slot to vary their spacing. Each clip rotates so it can grab a vent louver at any angle from horizontal to vertical. A kick-stand type hinged leg supports the mount from below. Loosen the collar and you can adjust the angle of the shaft holding the pivot ball for the GPS bracket. Unfortunately, it appears that it cannot accommodate all varieties of dashboard vents.

The thin plastic vent louvers in my Lexus have a streamlined cross section, thicker at the pivot than at the edges. The saw-toothed clips grab the louver, and I found a good place to rest the supporting leg. Even so, it eventually shook loose during a sedate drive in my Lexus with the GPS attached.

My classic Corvette has a metal-ball side vent with thick straight metal louvers. The mount clips grab the louver tightly and the leg rests in the crease between the dash and the ball. The mount prevailed through a bumpy and sporty test drive with my GPS in the Corvette.

I had hoped to take the mount on trips for use in rental cars to avoid the scarce availability and inflated charges for GPS. I am skeptical that I can get the mount to work in a unknown car.

5 Stars Great Vent Mount

I bought this vent mount as well as another model. I like this one better. The clips fit snugger on the vents, but when I want to remove the mount this one is easier to remove. The mount ball can be positioned at a angle to suit your GPS receiver placement, and the ball can then be locked into position.
