How do you hold your BB In Car?
I am just wondering how you guys have your BB held up in the car. I want to use the GPS on it, but I don't know where to put it where it wont fall over or a spot where I can see it really good.

I have a window mount to hold my Pearl, and my GPS receiver is on my keychain. Works just fine. |
I have 2 hands for my BB and 1 knee for my steering wheel
|
Yea, but if you want to use the GPS you cant have your hand up near the windshield and drive at the same time, your arm will get tired.
|
I went to Target and bought a generic cell phone holder than attaches to the slats on a vent. Works just fine although it works it way out of the vent over time.

Forget the steering wheel, focus on the BB

I have an Arkon Vent Mount which came free with my BT GPS puck purchase from buygpsnow.com. You can buy one of these mounts for about $10 and it'll snap right into the heater vent on your car. I would never have purchased it on my own, so I'm glad it came free because I have come to love it! I also recommend the vendor (buygpsnow.com)

Mine either sits in a cup holder, or rests on the dashboard on one of those small non-slip mats. I like the vent holders, I need to get me one of those. |
Wish I had three hands; I just use a generic mobile phone cup
edit: please don't let that wish come true! |
walmart windshield mount works great.
|
One of those rubber mats that dont slip, works great
|
I bought a sticky car holder (I guess windshield) off ebay and the curve is a tight fit and works its way out so I usually hold it in one hand and drive with the other.
|
I purchased a generic holster from The Source and modified the "arms" to a snug fit; they were way to tight out of the box and pressed on the side buttons. I also glued a magnet on the inside so it will act like a BB holster. When I need to navigate with GPS, I just stick something under it to hold it up away from the magnet. I since had to modify the vent clip too; the original was quite cheap and broke. Works like a charm and never moves.
Do you keep the vent open or closed when using this type of vent holster? I keep mine closed for fear of moisture and/or excessive heat causing damage. |
Mine lives in the cup holder when not in my hand.
|
cup holder, perfect fit!
|
steering wheel w/ velcro. velcro is attached to the rubber skin, which i only use my truck. ha. for GPS purposes.
