Mounting a Garmin iQue 3600 GPS and a constant power source...

<center><img src="http://www.garmin.com/products/iQue3600/gallery/pt-iQue01large.jpg"></center><p>I just purchased an iQue 3600 Palm GPS unit and I would like to mount it in a good location. Something like a suction cup system on the window would be nice, any suggestions?

I would also like to be able to route power to it from the fuse box instead of using the 12V power next to the ashtray. How can I do this?

How much did you pay for it?

Thing I didn't get is that most decent systems, you're better off getting a standalone GPS unit.

$500 with the car nav kit...Only had it for a day, but I like it alot.

Plus, if I don't like it...I bought it from costco, so I can always return it (they have the best return policy)

I think in the storage compartment

or the flip-down compartment (where the cigarette lighter is) would be cool. Discrete is cool :-)

I have a window mount for my Axim (CF GPS)...

mounted to the left. Sits in a nice spot for visibility and works well.

The window mount is a suction cup with a 8" arm attached to an Akron universal mount.

Do you know about this site? -->

<a href="http://www.pdastreet.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=108">iQue Forum</a>

(In thinking about replacements for my allroad, I've become a TT wannabe, so I'm lurking about over here. I installed my iQue in my allroad using a custom approach that I don't think will work in TTs because of the different dash design. My allroad's in for its 60K service all day today, but I'll take a couple of pictures and start another thread linked to this one tomorrow.) HPH
