Good question. I move mine around with the suction cup mount. I bought another one, and just leave them in place, so all you have to do is remove the unit. I did put them on while it was warm, so to allow the suction cup to work better rather than on a cold surface

The suction window mount is small and easy to move. And it comes with the Garmin.

I have found that the window suction works best when mounted in a location that you don't have to take your eyes off of the road

I use a "Garmin Friction Mount" by that just lays on the dash. It has a sticky bottom that holds very well. Amazon has them.

Moving this from bike to bike depends on the handlebars that you have. If they are round you should be GTG. I have a road bike with flat bars so I had to modify it. The mount does work as long as you do not ride over any thing rough because the phone will fall out. I have an I phone with an otter box an that was the only thing that saved my phone from breaking. I ended up buying a Slip Grip holder for the phone I have with the Otter box that mounts to the stem, the phone has not fallen off in 1000 miles.

More information is needed. What kind of camera are you using, how fast are you going, what kind of surface are you driving on, how are you configuring the mount?

I originally used the Vortex mount but ended up w/an Aero Precision Ultralight mount to save weight since the Vortex is already pretty heavy. The mount is a little over 3oz!

You can also mount it to the corner post or on your dashboard. I have had them on both. Corner post is the best as it's not as obstructive. I would not mount to your windshield.

I'd go for the trunk lip mount, that's what I did. There's also a magnetic mount. The best spot to mount an antenna, especially a CB is going to be on the top of the vehicle with the biggest whip you can get. Mine is a 60 inch whip so it sticks well above the roof of the car. Some folks get those firesticks and mount them in the bed of their truck and from what I've been told they barely radiate a signal forward. I just installed and and I have found CB to be mostly useless in the city anyway, and when I have needed it on the highway it does fine. My VHF/UHF antenna is TLP/NMO mount off to the side. My cb is in the center of the trunk. I don't have problems. Hope this helps.

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.

no, it sticks to the dashboard with adhesive. Use a 'portable' mount to change from car to car.

I didn't permanently install my antenna either so yes, you can move between cars. Not practical to do everyday. Okay in scenario you gave.

I use a spring, plus solid base. It depends on where you were thinking of mounting it, and on what vehilce. Bumper mount would be best, due to the length of the antenna.

I am using it for a home antenna. I have it on a 4" dia. x 3/8" thick plate and it is very hard to remove. Because the antenna is light, I believe it will easily stay on a fast moving car. The Tram 1199 Glass Mount is a little less money and seems to be a better antenna though. I am waiting for an adapter to try it on my Home Patrol.

You do not have to purchase anything else, it is all inclusive. I have used this in my '08 Jeep Wrangler in the desert roads out of Vegas and have not had a single issue with it falling off. If you want to make it a hard mount you will have to purchase the seperate base mount that screws into place. This is by far the best mount I have used for anything, GPS, MP3, Cell phone, etc.

You shouldn't have any problems, I have used mine in my car with a suction mount and it was very secure. This frame is very sturdy.

Get the 'bean bag' dash mount that Amazon sells - worth every penny! http://tinyurl.com/nzzcrvx

I used leupolds mark 2 ims 1 inch mount. Solid rail mount and no movement. Little on the pricey but for a great mount it's worth it

car charger fits in the case,not sure what you mean by mount,if it is what you attach the GPS to I would say no...it would not fit.
