Customer Reviews

The Nuvi 350 comes with dashboard & windshield mounts
This mount, or something similar, was included with my Nuvi 350.

The literature with the Nuvi says the adhesive can be very difficult to remove, so I'm giving it 3 stars because of that. I haven't actually used this mount because I didn't want adhesive all over my car's dash.

Want to clarify: If you have a Nuvi, the Nuvi 350 comes with a dashboard mount, so I don't know why you'd need to buy it separately. The Nuvi also comes with the windshield suction mount, both car and AC chargers, and a leather case. Unless you need two, don't order it for the Nuvi.

The only thing you'd need to buy separately, if you want one, is the friction mount. I have the one "for Nuvis" and it works great! It uses the bracket that comes with the Nuvi unit and did not need any additional part.

Nice if you can get the base firmly mounted to your dash
I bought this thing thinking I can mount it to the top of my dash. My dash has a slight curve to it, but, it looked like there was a few flat spots where the base could mount. I already new the suction cup wouldn't work on my dash.

Didn't work using the temporary adhessive. The temporary adhessive didn't stick to the dash at all. Before installation, I did wash/dry the dash good, to avoid oils, dust and other containmenants from effecting the adhessive. Playing with the second adhesive disk, it appears I need to mount this thing on a perfectly smooth and flat surface. The permanent adhessive should have better luck because it's stronger and probably can stick with less surface contact between it and the dash, but, by then I found I didn't like mounting the unit on the dash afte all.

Beyond the base, the biggest disappointment with this thing is that the arm that attaches to the base and ends in a ball upon which you mount the Nuvi mounting plate is fixed and doesn't adjust like the suction cup arm that comes with the Nuvi. If it did, I could possibly mount the base in the little shelf below the radio, with the end of the arm sticking out far enough to mount the Nuvi (which actually could work with the suction cup and that hard disk that comes with the Nuvi). Only way to use the arm is mounted on top of a horizonntal surface, like your dash.

Using the arm with the bean bag (this little piece of plastic is REALLY expensive) sort of worked until I had to suddenly swerve one day. Came crashing down --- happened after about a week of driving.

This period was long enough though to convince me that I rather not mount the Nuvi on the dash. Mounting on the dash is great for visibility of the Nuvi screen and for hearing the bluetooth hands free setup. But, the glow of the Nuvi on my windsheild was too distracting.

In the end, I bought a custom dash mount for my car that costs me $60 (Proclip). Works great, and I wasted my money on the Garmin Auto Mount and bean bag.


Last negative: the quick release plate that connects to the suction cup that comes with the Nuvi has a microphone jack on it. The quick release plate that comes with the automotive mount doesn't. That sucks if you were thinking of using the auto mount in a second car.

Great mount but should be included with the Nuvi
The mount works great but why didn't they include it? It is illegal to use a glass mount in some states and if you had an older Garmin that used the dash mount, this allows the nuvi to snap into that mount. Also, using the suction mount is a pain because the cord hangs down and looks bad. If you have a Nuvi, get this mount but complain to Garmin for not including it in the first place.
