User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Does the Job Well
Keeps the GPS off the windshield and below the field of essential vision while driving. Stable platform, but could be more flexible to fit undulating dashboards. Security is better while parked because the whole fixture can be set down on the floor and not stuck on the windshield to draw the attention of thieves. I bought one for each of my two cars, but use only one (readily transferrable). I offered the other to my nephew, but he already had bought one and likes it.

5 Stars Stays put, works great
Recently purchased the Nav Mat and couldn’t be happier. Took it on a 4 hour trip and the GPS stayed put and worked great. Previously, we would hand hold the GPS because suctioning it to the window was a vision hazard. I also leave the Nav Mat on my dashboard and use it to hold my cell phone or sunglasses. Would recommend this to anyone who uses a window suction GPS.

5 Stars Problem Solved
This little product solved 2 problems for me: 1) suction cup ghosts on the windshield and 2) long stretches to adjust my Garmin 265wt GPS while attached to the windshield suction cup. The first problem of course leaves a tell-tale mark that is easy for thieves to spot. That problem is solved because I simply move the dash pad to the floor of the vehicle.

The second problem is just a plain old pain in the ____, well you get the idea. Actually, it’s a pain in the neck and shoulders to reach/stretch that far. Not to mention the possible safety issues of being too far out of the driver comfort zone.

I’m using this dash pad in a Pontiac Montana Van which has an uneven dashboard surface, i.e, no flat spots where the dash pad can have great contact. Regardless, the dash pad has functioned flawlessly for me. It has not moved a single inch, even on sharp curves. I’ve been very impressed.

And for a low price of ~$14, this makes this very functional problem solver a real bargain.

5 Stars great product for CA drivers
I recently found it that it’s illegal to have a GPS mounted to the windshield here in CA, glad someone told me. This product is great for placing your GPS unit anywhere on your dashboard. I have a Garmin GPS and the height seems to be perfect, just over the lip of the pad. I like the fact I can slide the pad around and have the passenger use it (while I drive) and then be able to move it back over to my side where I can see the map.

The pad is heavy so it doesn’t tend to move unless you really turn a corner quickly, but even then barely tends to slide.

I would highly recommend this product.

2 Stars Compatability of dash pad mounts withTomToms
This fraction dash pad without an open front will not work with TomTom One XL. You must have an open front to allow the power cord which directly comes out of the bottom of the unit to otherwise conflict with a closed front. The newer TomToms have their power cords emanate from the back of the unit.
