I am investigating the purchase of a GPS system for use in our Seat Alhambra (same as Galaxy & Sharan) and am interested as to how people have fiitted them as the windscreen is a long way from the driver.
Do people use a vent bracket and how is reception with regard to the heated windscreen.
Looking forward to meeting all those at Basingstoke.
Regards

Hi have a Sharan, and use the Brodit mount on the passenger side of the stereo, it is extremely secure and give a great view of the GPS unit.
I have a Mio 168 with Co-pilot _________________ Mitac Mio 168 | CoPilot 5 | Brodit Mount | VW Sharan

Thanks Darren and Andy for the info.
Andy, how is your reception with the Mio 168? Do you need an aerial extention?
