Garmin 60CSx.

I just modified the belt clip and hardwired a cigarette converter to 12v. The cord pull sin and out of the dash depending on whether the GPS is plugged in or not.

The mount:



The unit in place:



Cool thing is the back light will stay on all the time when there is 12v. Great for night driving.

I have two of their Grip-It mounts, one for my cell and one for my GPS (Magellan, though, not Garmin) using their vent mounts. I bought some of their flexible adhesive mounts, but haven't tried using them yet.
