Got a funky, contoured dash that won't allow you to mount your eTrex level? Solution: suction cup mount. Stick mount to the inside of the windshield or window and snap eTrex into place. Bracket is jointed, so you can adjust to your heart's content and get the unit out of direct sunlight.

Good bracket, but not perfect.:
This bracket has a lot of adjustability, except you cannot swivel the bracket so that the GPS is rotated toward the driver if the bracket faces straight toward the back of the vehicle. Instead, I had to mount the bracket slightly angled, then rotate the vertical rotation of the GPS so that it's straight vertical. Also, the back plate provided with the bracket does not fit my Venture CX, though I have the adaptor provided with the GPS itself, so I don't need the plate provided. I like that it's compact,... more info
Great product:
So far I have really enjoyed having this mount. Before I would just lay the GPS on the dash. This is a great improvement. There is alot of adjustment to allow for just about any angle. I would recommend mounting close to the dashboard to provide additional support.
For -CX models, get RAM Mount instead:
If you have a -CX based eTrex (legend or vista) model, the cover plate will not fit due to the grove that is built in to accommodate the micro SD card. Instead, I recommend getting a RAM mount: RAM Mounting Systems Handlebar Mount for Garmin eTrex Venture C, Legend C, Vista C, Venture CX, Legend CX, Vista CX
Garmin windshield mount:
I am an avid geocacher and use this with my Garmin GPS. It works great. Just clean your windshield with some windex, moisten the suction cup and attach! It holds my GPS securely and allows me to look at my GPS without interfering with my vision.
