Okay, its in my Heep... but the RAM Mount System is top notch! If you use a Pocket PC, or any number of other devices (they make holders for most everything!), this may be what you are looking for!

The entire setup, shipped, cost me $31. I was just about to buy some POS mount for $35 off ebay, which would have needed excessive remods to make it work like I wanted, and in my searching came across the RAM Mounts.

Hope this helps someone...

Works fine here.

Those Ram Mounts are great. I use them in the Bronco and the T-Bird, although the ball mounts in the car are losing there shape after two years so I need to replace them. Other than that, they rock! :thumbup

For those looking for a no tools required mounting system.

I've used it in my Neon for my Blackberry and then my Treo 700w.

I got mine set up a little different in the bronco, but it works.

The ProClip looks good, but the RAM Mount will hold my Axim in most any terrain. From looking at the ProClip, a good bounce and it would slide up and out on its own. Look close to mine, its CLIPPED into the mount. Extreamly secure. Wish I knew about these sooner!!

Its 100 degrees out right now, the *last* thing I want is to block off an AC vent. :-)

For the faint at heart, the ProClip would be nice. For the serious application, RAM is the forshizzle. :O

That's why I have not gotten the Bronco one myself. The Neon one only blocks the tray above the vent which I find useless anyways. And of course I've never wheeled the Neon so I cannot speak for how well it will stay in the clip.

I have a Garmin too. I use it on the boat and the truck. Very cool.
I used the bicycle mount to put mine on the rail of my center console and it is right in my field of view when I pilot my boat.
I have an account with a distributor and got mine wholesale :) oh yea...
I am about to surprise the wife with a new one for the boat!!
