Suction Cup Base Mounting Options:

We currently offer three alternative solutions for mounting your suction cup mount in a location other than a windshield:

The Super Grip Non Skid Base with round plastic plate, is a weighted base that can be placed on your dash without an adhesive or drilling. Simply place the base on your dash, or any flat surface and then attach the suction cup to the round plastic plate. This is perfect when you want a temporary mounting solution but the windshield mount just isn't the answer.
The Suction Cup Adhesive Disk with round plastic plate, is a great mounting surface to attach the RAM Twist Lock Suction Cup. Simply stick the the plate to any flat surface and then attach the suction cup to the plate. This is perfect when you need to attach your suction cup mount to your car dash vertically or horizontally, rather than to your windshield.
The Suction Cup Drink Cup Holder with round plastic plate, is a great mounting surface to attach the RAM Twist Lock Suction Cup. Simply place the base into any cup holder in your vehicle and then attach the suction cup to the plate found on top. This is perfect when you need to attach your suction cup mount away from the windshield or when you just want the mount off the dash.

The mount was also better than anything available from Garmin... SO this was a no brainer. 3 out of 5 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Bai Lin Savary Island, BC October 2, 2009	FUNCTIONAL GPS MOUNT Pros: solid performance Cons: poor documentation and assembly instructions This product performs well after the initial challenge of set- up and assembly is undertaken.

Mac Toronto, ON August 7, 2009	FIRST GPS MOUNT - Pros: very sturdy. seems to be indestructible. Cons: very little instructions as to how to install. I bought this GPS mount for my 60Cx and it worked like a charm. Now the good stuff: - nice build quality. - solid design. - fail-proof. - no rattles. - can move the arm around to adjust viewing angle. - does NOT block any cables (great for 12V-USB). - easy take off. I would definitely recommend getting one of those if you plan on going on road trips. But I wish the box came with more instructions (I thought they sent the wrong thing before I finally figured it out). 14 out of 27 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

Jimmy Jeep SoCal July 13, 2009	AWESOME SUCTION MOUNT! Pros: very sturdy, great suction. that's what you want! Cons: none This is by far better than any suction-type mount I've used for anything. Don't waste your money on anything less! After many hours of off-roading in my Jeep, it's never fallen off or even moved! 12 out of 23 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Andre Balmoral, NB, Canada June 19, 2009	GARMIN 60SERIES GPS MOUNT Very Good product, holds the GPS firmly in place and never had a fall down after over a month of travelling dirt roads. At first the arm seemed long, but after installing it in the vehicle it was a perfect fit. I highly recomend this mount 18 out of 33 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

Hi Leawood, Kansas June 13, 2009	OUTSTANDING MOUNT! This is a solid, dependable mount...so good that I've ordered one for my new GPSMAP 640 and expect it to perform as well. 15 out of 30 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Pablo Bloomfield, New Mexico June 12, 2009	THE VERY BEST GPS MOUNT ANYWHERE! Pros: beautiful design, attractive, fully functional. Cons: none! This mount is built tough! It stands up to heat, cold, rough terrain. You name it this mount holds on and dont let go. Other mounts I've used have a little play in the construction or operation. The Ram Mount is designed to eliminate any play or vibration thereby keeping the unit in a constant fixed position. Is a lot easier to check at a glance without all the vibration or distortion you get from other mounts. I really love this mount! I cant say enough about it! Beautiful design, attractive, fully functional! What else could a person want out of a mount? 14 out of 29 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Safety Dave Regina, SK Canada June 6, 2009	WORKS EXCELLENT Pros: quick on, quick off Cons: none as of yet. I have taken a few trips with this unit firmly mounted to the window with out a single drop off. I am very impressed with the quality and ease of use. I recommend it highly. I take it off the window when leaving the vehicle in the sun for a few days as a precaution, but that is just me. Easy on and Easy off. 16 out of 31 viewers found this review helpful.

650KLR Durham, NC March 11, 2009	RAM RULES Pros: very well made, best investment you can get. Cons: a little hard to remove but no big thing. I have and do own many RAM mounts and have loved them all. Bought this mount for Geocaching and I can use it for both my car and my motorcycle. It holds on tight and for some that may be an issue but on a bike you just don't want $500 sliding down the road at 70mph. 28 out of 55 viewers found this review helpful.

F1 Canada Halifax N.S. February 16, 2009	GARMIN 60 SERIES RAM MOUNT Pros: easy to use Cons: must take care when removing gpsr from cradle Good unit overall. I am using it on the windshield,and it is extremely easy to mount and reposition with the locking suction mount. Holds the GPSR securely in place. GPSR is also easily placed in the cradle. A little care needs to be taken when removing the GPS from the cradle to prevent damage to the rubber on the GPSR. 32 out of 56 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

luftmech SASKATCHEWAN January 28, 2009	RAM MOUNTS Cons: the stock arm is a little long but not a big issue This is a great product that is very versatile.

Van December 12, 2008	AWESOME MOUNT, ONE OF THE BEST! This mount gives you limitless options for positioning your GPSr to whichever angle you need. When mounted in the car, there is absolutely NO vibration, and the mount is rock solid. You won't regret using this mount. It's top notch. As a side note, I had the Ram Gooseneck mount prior to purchasing this mount. While it was OK, it had a little too much vibration when driving on rough road, but this mount is 100% steady. 43 out of 88 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Stinkybob November 25, 2008	GOOD UNIT Bought this to use with my Garmin 60CSx. Been using the mount for about 3 months now. Overall I'm very happy with the mount. It holds the GPS securely and is very adjustable to optimize viewing angle. The only problem I've had so far is that on a very hot day with a cool night, the mount came unstuck from the windshield and ended up on the floor. The GPS stayed in, but I can only give it a 4 because of this. Cheers 45 out of 98 viewers found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Ken November 12, 2008	HIKER, BACK ROAD TRAVELLER I have looked at a number of mounts and price shpped around and this unit is worth it!

Shauna May 14, 2008	This is one great product. I was extremely impressed with this product when I opened the package and couldn't be happier. We use our GPS both in our ski boat and our vehicles. It works great no matter which vehicle we are in, and it stays put in rough water. This is a must have for anyone wanting a great mount that is very durable and stays where you put it, also the ability to swivel in almost any position is an advantage over the Garmin product. 40 out of 80 viewers found this review helpful.

Scott CO August 22, 2007	RAM SUCTION CUP MOUNT Absolutely outstanding. I finally tired of the cheesy Garmin auto mount and bought the suction cup mount. I already owned the RAM cradle and arm of which I use on my motorcycle. I suggest that you also purchase the suction cup base. 45 out of 90 viewers found this review helpful.
