I was going to ask that question also. It gives you some ideas seening other people's setup's.
I will post mine soon.

By the way your links are not working.

here is my setup in a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee with proclip & swivel mount. forget vent or suction mounts, this thing rocks!

The Map Man · 10-02-03, 10:32 PM

Same car as above!!

Phar that's a great mount! Where'd you get it/how much? Mine blocks the vent and sits too low, so I lose signal quite a bit.

sorry, i should have included this: ProClip
i just found these from another poster here and i'm very impressed with the product.

I like the way the ProClip mounts to the car. I just ordered the Akron CM527 Powered Multimedia PDA Mount because of the built-in speaker (Ford Windstar is really noisey on the highway). Do you think the Akron with the speaker can be adapted to fit on the ProClip mount? This would be the best of both worlds.

The Map Man · 10-03-03, 02:32 PM

yeah im wondering basically the same as above...can i use my existing arkon holder to work with the clip? if not i'd be ending up spending a total of about $100 just for holders lol

Frosty62 · 10-03-03, 03:08 PM

Well if you can afford a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee, what's another $100 :rolling:

The Map Man · 10-03-03, 03:20 PM

Sure but it's still a waste to throw $100 just to hold my $160 Axim (got a good deal).

And besides, its an 01 ;)

hey phar what kinda gps is that. Looks to me like the dual one where you can use it as a mouse & cf gps. Looks nice

phar · 10-03-03, 07:37 PM

it is the haicom hi-303e. i'm not sure about dual use, though.

JakeRich · 10-03-03, 08:34 PM

Yes, the 303e can be used as a CF or mouse GPS. You need cables for the mouse use, but the neat thing is that the power/data cable powers both the GPS and the Axim through the bottom connector of the Ax, a connection that is much more solid than the coax plug that falls out when the Ax is vertical.

how do I attach a jpg to my reply?

The Map Man · 10-03-03, 10:53 PM

you should see an attach box at the bottom with "browse" next to it...if its too big resize it

Am using the X5 with Pocket Map Navigator with mouse antenna in a Suburban.

The Garmin is a back up and supplement. The Garmin does not give street routing, but points to a direct route. It does, however, use NavTech data, never fails, freezes, or locks up, has a super local information (POI) database, and bunch of user defined functions. Also, by having two displays set at different ranges results in a better 'big picture' of 'where am I' in relation to___ ? I am still tossing the coin on dumping all of this and buying a Garmin 2610.
