Q: Flexability of base that is in contact with Dash

A: This Garmin Portable Auto Friction Mount has a flexible base to mold and shape to almost any dashboard. {CW}

Q: how does it hold to dash

A: There is a flexible (gel-like) tacky pad under the hard base cover. I have only had mine for a few weeks now and still has good resistance to sliding on my slick, pebbly grain textured dash. I find that it resists sliding better than my sandbag-like mounts which have a firmer rubbery contact surface.

Q: can this be permantly mounted to dash on flush side

A: I had mine semi-permanently mounted to the dash. I bought the GPS and the mounting bracket from Best Buy where they have a "installation" including burying the wire. They use a black plastic disc just wider than the base, and double-stick tape - then you can use the suction cup to grip it down. Eventually the tape will fail and must be re-taped. About once a month the suction will break free and the GPS will fall over - no problem in my case because the short wire keeps it from falling to the console.. --- This was on a model 2557. When I got a 6-inch model 65 the suction cup was wider than the base but would still hold the heavier unit for about a week. It barely clears the dash. . I have asked but they will not sell you a disc. You might be able to improvise. A dash mount is better because you can get the unit closer to your line of sight. And by the way, the oily base may leave a stain on your dash.

Q: How do I detach the GPS Drive 50LM from the mount's ball? I know there must be a release somewhere but I can't figure it out. Thanks.

A: Actually I discovered that the "socket" on the GPS device into which the ball inserts is releasable and that detatches the stand and device without trying to jerk out the ball.

Q: is this compatible with Garmin nuvi 57LM unit model 010 01400-01 sku 3912152?

A: Yes, this portable friction mount will work with the nüvi 57LM. ~JH

Q: Will this friction mount fit Garmin Drive 61 LMT GPS please?

A: Yes, this portable friction mount is compatible with the Drive™ 61 LMT-S.
