Best GPS mounting place? Since the lighter port is not at the central console...

(1/1)

tingshen:
Was looking around for bluetooth handsfree and GPS and found out Garmin 1460 seems to fit everything I want. However, getting the thing mounted could be a challenge to me.....shall I run the power wire all the way down to the lighter location? Or shall I just run on its own battery?

Would like to hear from you guys.....haven't bought yet, currently Garmin 1460 is selling at $499, anybody is using it? How's the bluetooth handsfree quality compare to Blueant ST3?

I'm using Garmin 765, I use both battery and power from the lighter as and when it needed.

tingshen:
Cool, when needed.I think should be fine coz it is not like handphone...

Hi tingshen,

I am using Garmin nüvi® 1350. Placed it at the center bottom of the windscreen, slightly to the front passenger side.

Half battery can last you multiple trips anywhere within Singapore.

When I drove to KL with the Garmin GPS, the full battery lasted me from Pagoh rest point to Sg Besi.
