Know before you buy
This mount is specifically designed for select Garmin GPS units. Please verify your specific Garmin model number against the cradle compatibility list to ensure a secure fit.
The suction cup requires a smooth, non-porous surface for a reliable seal. If your dashboard is textured, you will need to use a RAM adhesive disk to create a flat, glass-like mounting point.
The mount uses a 1-inch rubber ball and socket system. By loosening the knob on the double socket arm, you can pivot and rotate your device to your preferred viewing angle before tightening it back into place.
The 3.3-inch twist-lock suction cup is engineered for high-strength holding power on glass and smooth surfaces. While it is very secure for standard vehicle use, ensure the surface is clean and free of debris before locking it down for the best performance.
This product is backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty. If you experience any issues with the build quality or functionality of the mount, you are covered by RAM Mount's manufacturer warranty.
