Will it mount on a vertical surface (like next to the air vent)? Because I can't comfortably reach much further than my steering wheel.

It would probably stay on any flat surface. I stuck mine on and it's so good on my windsheild that it won't come off lol.

Yes it can. Mine is on the dash board right above my air vents so that i don't have to stretch my arm out.

Yes, they hold well at any angle. I've had one mounted vertically next to the glove box in my car for months without any issues.

The mount has a non skid pad. So, any space in your dashboard visible to you while you'll driving will work just fine.

Yes, in most cars, you'll be able to attach the sticky suction base to the top of the dashboard. In some cars that have a heavily textured dashboard, you may need to use the circular adhesive disk included. If you bring it out towards the front lip or edge of the dash, you'll be able to adjust the arm downward into a position that's convenient for you (very similar to where it would be if you were using an air vent). This is exactly how I use this mount. Love it!

you probably could but it is not recommended. it would partially block you front view and also it is very doubtfull that the mounting bracket would hold the weight. it will be easier to see mounted lower in front of the dash.

The bracket rotates so you should be able to mount it to a vertical surface. I have mine mounted flush on top of my console and I usually have it bent all the way forward so I can see the screen from directly above it.

Yes. I installed mine vertically. Holds fairly tight. Just have to make sure the window is closed tight enough to hold it.

I don't know. We mounted it the normal flat way and it works fine. I am not sure if it can be mounted vertically.

You will need an appropriate mount and spring for the location. I mounted mine on the rear of my Jeep and it extends above the top about 6 inches.

I don't think so. I have used it on a sloping dashboard without problems. Just make sure you have a good seal between the GPS and the dash mount.

Well after a 7 hour drive in hot weather mine was curved about 4 inches from vertical ... guess I WAS going too fast :-} so it's not out of possibility that it COULD slap the side... but every time I looked it was curved back, not toward jeep.Maybe the install could point it back toward the back a bit to lessen the push of the wind ????fyi, reception is pretty good - much better than 5 incher

It depends on how high and how securely you mount it. I'd look at alternate ideas because I think reaching up to the upper rack will be too difficult and there may be too much swaying. Best of luck.

I mounted mine on the left side to avoid drilling into the airbag. You could also use industrial velcro.

I don't think it is designed for vertical vents. It works fine on my horizontal vents though.

I mounted mine on the bottom of my steering column just below the steering wheel. Out if the way but easy access for muting etc

It should be mounted vertically! It won't work well horizontally. Sorry for the late response---we are visiting relatives in Sweden.

It comes with a sticky tape circular mount that might stick to the dash and the holder will suction to that. If you've got a good flat area on the dash it may work good.

I have it mounted horizontal but don't see why it can't be mounted vertical . Great product !
