Got the same problem. I put the GPS unit under the little ball on the curved arm, but the bottom of GPS has nothing to hold in place and when moved it easily slips out. Cannot figure out how to use this bean bag base with this unit with curved piece with ball on it??????
1990211
does anyone have a picture of it put together, I think this might help, thanks

The ball on the stem of the mount should snap into the hole in the back of your GPS. The fit is tight but it should snap right on.

...just push it Real Hard! Take the mount off the base first. does that help? Any luck? Let me know?

it should just snap on to the bottom of your Garmin, We have three Garmins and these mounts and they all snapped on easily, I bought one for my son and his snapped on too. I did not have to buy anything for it to attach, maybe ask Bestbuy if it's not working right for you- they sell botht he Garmins and these sandbag holders

I have a one inch wide piece of plastic that snaps on the back of the GPS. There is a circle on back and you just press that onto the mount until it snaps on. It takes a bit of pressure to press it on or take it off but it's never fallen off before so that's good

You need to use the clip that came with your garmin. Clip that adapter to the back of the garmin and this bean bag holder ball mount clicks into that adapter.

This does not come with what you would need to mount it to a Garmin suction mount. http://www.rammount.com/CatalogResults/PartDetails/tabid/63/partid/082065077045072079076045071065053055085/Default.aspx

I used silicone to attach the mount as tape will come off in the heat. There was a lot of wobble with my larger RV Garmin, so I used Velcro on the left side to hold it solid.

I use the 5 inch GPS, Garmin and it holds on the vent with out any problems. It can be moved but stays put.Will not accommodate the Garmin 7 inch 2797 an way.

It sticks to the windshield extremely well, best windshield mount I've ever used in that regard. I wish my Garmin mount stuck a well, but it's not even close.

Wondering what you are asking me? We bought this bracket listed and it does not fit our Garmin. I am frustrated now since I do not have a bracket at all! I want to get another one. Are you saying that you have a bracket that will fit our Garmin?

I called Garmin a few weeks ago and they sent me a new mount almost overnight. It is new and improved. They were very nice about it.

I believe the vent mount is supposed to be universal to all Garmin models. It either clips directly onto your GPS, or you will need to use the little adapter piece that comes with the GPS. I can't speak to your specific car, but as long as it's a "typical" vent with horizontal louvers, it should work just fine.

It comes with a mounting device that you affix to the windshield. I didn't want something attached to the interior of my windshield and wanted to avoid having the GPS visible to potential thieves. I ordered a Garmin Portable Friction Mount at the same time I ordered the Nuvi. It works extremely well and allows me to take it off the dash (I have a Mercedes Sprinter RV) and put it out of sight on the floor. The mount that came with the Nuvi is still wrapped in the original plastic.

Hi Darlene, I chose the "Garmin Friction Mount" by Garmin. It is a medium sized mount - not distracting, has a sticky bottom (I place in a plastic bag when not using, removing any air so not to dry it out and keep it clean).Fits my dashboard console perfectly (2007 Mustang), adjusting to face me.

I have mine mounted on my bike and the Garmin simply slides off the mount very easily--effortlessly. Perhaps you have something installed backwards.

As far as I know the garmin mount is universal. The mount or brackett has a "grip" for this approximately 1/2" ball. I have four Garmins of different vintages and they all fit

You need a RAM Mount. This consists of a handlebar clamp with a ball on it, an articulating RAM "arm" that attaches to the ball on the clamp (I have the shortest 1.75" arm) and a ball mount bolted on to the back of the GPS mount. My GPS mount is on a BMW GS, which has a Canbus electrical system, so I have the GPS connected to the battery via a Centech AP-1 fuse box.

Yes the current friction mounts that are sold now do fit the 3790 series including the 3790T. I have that Garmin unit and bought the friction mount since I prefer it to the window mount... It works great. I love it:) (I bought mine form Beach Camera on Amazon.com for about $24. I hope this helps...

I have no idea. You would have to ask someone who sells the friction mount about the configuration of the Nuvi52LK. I am enjoying it for the Garmin very much.
