 Does what it's supposed to. January 8, 2008
Mount was built decently. I also have the windshield mount and an atv handlebar mount. They are all based off of the same "clip style" mount.

The Magellan eXplorist Swivel Mounting Bracket works as advertized. Not a massively robust unit by way of construction but well designed. It does the job it's intended for with few problems. I would have given it 4 stars if it were built stronger.

I was puzzled before purchasing this item, because no where in the descriptions does it explain how this device attaches to your car or if the bottom of the unit is a large rubber suction cup or what? The photo doesn't answer that question either.
So now that I purchased one, and know, I will answer it.
The bottom of this mount is just a flat plastic bottom with four holes so you can attach it with screws to something. (or you can attach velcro to it, and velcro it to something)
I was not about to screw this device into the dash of my car!
I also don't like the idea of sticking velcro to the dash either, so I was holding it all around the interior of the car wondering where I was going to put this thing...
And then I saw the cup holder!
The cup holder in my car slides in and out of the dash, and when it is pulled out, this device sat on top of it and I could hold it to the cup holder with one big rubber band and it didn't fall out or move around all day driving with it holding the GPS in place. Then I got another idea...
Why not attach this device onto something that can slide in and out of the cup holder like a cup does.
You can take any plastic cup or small jar that has a top that attaches securely or screws on. Then bolt this device onto the lid with 4 screws, and screw the lid onto the jar or cup, and then you just slide the whole contraption into a cup holder when you need it. This device allows you to position the GPS at every possible angle so you can have it looking right at you no matter where your cup holder is located.
If the four holes in the bottom plate of this device are too far apart for the lid you are using, you can always drill new holes closer in. Or expoxy the whole thing to whatever you have that fits in your cup holder nice and snug.
There are many cheap heavy duty plastic car mugs you can find with thick plastic lids that are wide enough for this device and the cups taper off to a smaller diameter at the bottom to fit into car cup holders that can be used for this project.
