Garmin GPS dashboard mount

I strongly recommend this Garmin portable friction dashboard mount that is sold separately. The mounts that come with the Nuvi 350 leave marks, and are not that easy to use or move, while the friction mount (a bean bag type of mount) does not slip, and the whole mounted unit can be easily put in a closed compartment in your car, out of sight of a robber, when not in use. It is very definitely worth the cost!

Garmin nuvi 350 Stand

Not the most attractive stand but very functional. Unlike the window attachment the crooks won't know if you have a GPS device since it's easily taken down & hidden when not in use.

Much better than the window mount included with my Nuvi 650!

It is simple to use and stays on the dash amazingly well. It is easy to move from car to car and, regardless (at least from my experience) of the slope of the dashboard, the mounting stand does not budge from where you place it even at relatively high speed turns.
The Friction Dashboard Mount is well constructed and fairly sturdy, although it would probably be better named if it was called the "on dashboard gps mount stand." The stand contains iron-based metal chunks in the base to give supporting weight (I tested this with a magnet).
Why I didn't give it 5 stars is this: although the plastic gps mount can be removed from the on-dash base, it's a bit annoying and I would have preferred a collapsible stand instead of removable. There are 2 clasps where the plastic mount seats into the on-dash base that can be used to rotate or angle the stand a bit, but once I had set mind, I do not feel a need to adjust it any more. A collapsible unit would have been much easier to just pop into the glove or under the seat.
One last note, the Friction Dashboard Mount works in conjunction with the Nuvi car-charging unit and will not work without one (I suppose you can just lay it on top, but it will probably slip off the base. I had, for some reason, thought that it was a pillow-y base that I could just lay the GPS on, but the unit works great in any case - much better than the window mount that came with my Nuvi 650.

Good solution

The Dashboard Friction Mount effectively holds the Garmin GPS unit in place on the dash and prevents sliding. The mount holds the GPS unit at an effective viewing angle and minimizes the windshield area obstructed. It is very valuable in CA where suction cup mounts are not legal.
