the end use material is still to be decided but will be probaly a durable plastic.
Mmm. First thought that comes to mind of durable plastic knife like thing sticking out of the front of my Go (taunting and mocking my every bad move) is that it would turn into a face peeler in the event of a head on?? Maybe that’s my twisted perception, I am out on the road a lot and see a paramedic shovelling bits of people onto stretchers almost daily! Confused

Problem is to put this into production and to get approval from the relevant safety board would put selling price about £20.00


Any feedback before I mortgage everything would be appreciated.



£20!!!, Blimey.

I use a Kelloggs cornflake box, cut to shape required, and placed over TT Go. Price???? £1.39 and contents eaten daily.

i don't find a need for a sun visor. Do people experiment by adjusting the mounting angle? I find by tilting the unit down so the screen is 90deg to the horizontal, i can see the screen in bright conditions. A screen protector helps too. Besides, a visor on the TOMTOM does make it look really naff.

It's like my new deodorant stick. The instructions said "unscrew top and push up bottom"

Now that did hurt!!!!!!!!
