DIY Sat Nav Mount

[AANDYY]

I made my self a Sat Nav mount for my car.
I used to door hand plates, whatever they are called.
I hate having the sucker marks left on my windscreen (perps and all that!)and even when there wiped off it's a bit obvious there has been one there as there is now a clean patch on the window.

On the base and the lippy things is some anti slip mat stuff.

I might paint it matt black as it's little reflective in the sun.

I do like having ago making stuff out of left overs .

A fine piece of engineering there.....it should out last the W210

Next time add a few swages to increase the torsional stiffness

What's it like in an emergency stop?

or worse...
It could do with being made of something more forgiving perhaps.

Why oh why did you not just buy a Brodit Pro Clip?

I reckon that will bounce like Beyonce's butt on UK's wonderfully smooth roads

I'd prefer it nearer to the windscreen, eyes focusing from road to sat nav, hope that makes sense.

Plus mines free.

Give it a year or two and I'm sure they'll be popping through!

Use some of that cream coloured rust resistant paint to colour code it.

Then give yourself a 30 year perforation warranty :bannana:

Why not just buy a bean bag mount? Tested and pefectly safe in an accident and the reason cops and ambulances use them! £15 good investment me thinks no sucker marks and perfectly safe.

But do they work on the rake of my dash, I doubt it.
