Default Dash mounts

Evening all

So I'm having an issue that I'm sure others have had. The texture of the dashboard, I can't get anything to stick to it. Anyone have any tips or products that can be used to stick a sat nav to the dash??

My latest fail was a set of TomTom dash discs that didn't even attempt to stick.

Cheers

Just a quick one. The sat nav is a 6inch screen not a small one. That's why I want to mount it on the dash.

What about a beanie sat nav mount? I’ve used one and they stay in place quite well.

Hi there,
After going through some crappy mounts, I finally found this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/DreamLine-P...+dashboard+mat

I'm not sure how thick your satnav is, but that bit works excellent for my phone (Moto G4). Sticks to dashboard and does not slide even when car goes over potholes.
Hope it helps, cheers!

It’s like a bean bag with a flat surface in the middle that the suction on the sat nav fixes to, got it from Halfords I think. It just sits nicely on the dash and doesn’t move about. Saves having the circles on the windscreen. Just put it under the seat when not in use. Works for me, prefer a map mostly.

I second the BRODIT idea, I’ve got one on the A pillar and it’s great! They also make on s that attach to the waterfall, that might be perfect.

That Brodit mount looks pretty good tbh. How does it mount?? Does it slot into where the window slides up in??

I have wind reflectors slotted In there. Would it still fit??

Should give you all the mount Plates for the 2010 V50
if you click the photos for each one it shows Where it fits and how

you would then find your sat nav and the adapter for it, attach to the mount, done
