Default Pro clip GPS mount

Who uses the Proclip radio mount for their GPS and how do you like it? Is it permanent mount or is it easily installed and removed? I don't want to scar up my bezel but it seems to be a better place for my GPS then the windshield suction cup. I have ordered the Zumo 550. Thanks to all you knowing and experienced people!!!

I have one I'm no longer using... I used it to mount my XM. I never peeled off the adhesive tape, just used the clip feature. It didn't mar anything.

$20 + shipping and it's yours.

I use it and love it, the one that clips to the side of the bezel is the one I have. I did use some epoxy to keep it in place so yes it's permanent (I did that by choice). Before the clue I used 2 sided sticky tape and that did the job for a yr then started to give out. The windshield mount is too temperamental and my GPS came crashing dn several times so I give up on that.

Sounds like a winner! I will send you a PM. Are you going to the Z06 Fest? I could get it from you then.

I got one that mounts my Ipaq. Its also the type that clips on the side of the bezel and its easily removable - it just unclips. I found the loose wires a bit of a pain but the clip itself is neat.

I don't use it much now as I have an AVIC X1 plus the GPS software doesnt work in UK.
