I am enjoying driving my almost new car... figuring out where to put things & deciding what to put in the new car.

I am very fussy about where I want my GPS.  I want it high in the dash level with the guages. For now, I'm using a air vent mount but I am not liking it any more this time than last...  not solid enough for my taste. 

I  found a listing for Proclip center mount 854646 which spans the air duct after being forced under the trim but I think $29 is too much to pay for half a mount...  still need a devise holder.  Only available by direct sale.   http://www.proclipusa.net/instruction.php?sku=854646    

I am going to make copy in a thin but hard aluminum from a scrap electronics mount.   I have a spare RAM ball mount that I can attach to it.

Remembered I need to screen the air intake against mice...  I have some aluminum expander metal that will form nicely around the intake to be secured with a few self tapping screws.
