Product Description:
The Garmin® Automotive Bracket has all the qualities you're looking for: lightweight, portable, adjustable. The bracket is jointed, allowing you to position your navigation unit out of the sun's glare, and comes with temporary and permanent adhesive disks that adhere the mount base to the dash.

The critical limitation is the eTrex substitute back that anchors it to this mount. The substitute back is cheesy and only fits the most basic of the eTrex series (if any). It certainly does not fit the Legend models with the memory card. I cannot vouch for any other models.
The mount has many. many adjustment points, each with a knob. Too many adjustments if you ask me. Sitting on the dash, it looks like a Rube Goldberg device from Mars. Really strange and old fashioned looking.

As other reviews have mentioned, it doesn't fit units with removable MMC card in the battery compartment, the instruction does mention that the original back cover has to be used, and needed to be screwed to the base of the mount structure. Well I did find out the screw, but it doesn't fit to the screw hole of my GPS unit. I had to get to a hardware store to find out the matching screw.
I'm surprise there weren't a lot of people complaining about this design defect. Just a warning that if you have a MMC capable units, better double check.

Mount works good. I have it in my truck using the temporary mounting adhesive. It holds real well and I haven't tried taking it off of my dash. Will be interesting to see how the adhesive holds up in the winter when the temperatures dip down below 0 deg. F.

It works well, but does allow a little vibration. The reason is two things...the first is its "fold up" design. The mere fact that it has to "fold up", makes it pron to amplify vibration.
The second is the way it mounts to the base plate. Even when locked, the mount can still move up and down slightly. This movement will amplify at the unit due to leverage.
Dont get me wrong...it works well, I would have like to se it tighter tho.

I highly recommend getting the auto-mount if you get the eTrex Legend Cx. It is easy to attach to the car dashboard. The only reason I am not giving it a full 5 stars is because I have a Jeep Liberty and the sticky stuff that it came with did not want to stick to the textured dashboard near the heater blowers.
