I have a garmin street pilot and the holder is not sticking to the window very well and can't tighten it down so it tends to droop. I was wondering if any one knew the best place to get a new holder.:ylsmoke:

I've had good luck with Ram Mounts at www.expressmounts.com.
I use a direct mount in my Jeep Wrangler (bolted in). In my car and Xterra, I use the locking suction cup (has rotating lever).
This code worked for me last week for 10% off (RAMEM9HP62).

Thank you, I checked out that site and it looks like it has what I need. The only thing that I didn't see was does it come with a power cord? Not a bad price a little over 30 dollars.

I'm also a strong supporter (pun possibly intended) of RAM mounts. I was very reluctant to move to a RAM suction cup mount, but I have had nothing but success with it. It's rock solid, reliable and has never came unexpectedly in years of service.

Its the Garmin street pilot c3330. Ram mounts look great. Any tips to ataching them to the window?
I take that you have the c330. Note that the RAM mount does not include the electrical connector - you have to use the Garmin one.
The RAM system is modular. So you need the unit mount, an arm and a base. In your case I think the base would be the locking suciton cup

I've never used the RAM suction cup, but I would expect it to be very good.

I have used both RAM suction cups and prefer the locking suction cup. They're cheap enough to where you can buy both and interchange them.
The locking cup has a smaller diameter and is a bit easier to remove. Though I usually don't leave attached to a hot window, I'm not sure what the long term effects of heat are on the suction cups.
I have found that temperature changes and a dirty interior windshield will cause the seal to break. Also keeping the surface of the mount clean helps, too. A little moisture helps keep it stuck, slobber works.:drool:
And yes, the Ram Mounts don't come with power cords but should be compatible.
