malvic Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Thinking about getting the ProClip to hold the Ipod. I read the install instructions and it mentions adhesive tape. Was wondering if anyone has this installed and if the tape will damage the finish on the console when it's removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosco Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 i have the vent mount works just fine. got pics of the one you have? two sided tape usually will come off w/o to much trouble, heat/solvent. bosco Stay Stock Stay Happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatbastard Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 bosco...how is the airflow affected out of the vent? I am thinking about getting the one for the passengers side for my GPS but I was concerned it would end up directing air into someones face.

I am thinking about getting the one for the passengers side for my GPS but I was concerned it would end up directing air into someones face. no problems so far the vent works fine the air is just deflected around it. in fact i want the passenger side mount for my Nuvi 350. bosco Stay Stock Stay Happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malvic Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 Drewster, what phone is that...Nokia N95? I was looking at that because it's a phone/PDA/GPS? What's your opinion on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewster Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 yep, N95 it's a solid phone. I've used in here in the U.S., Europe & Asia with the same t-mobile sim card and the reception is great. I do use it as a walkaround mp3 & mp4 player, sound is good but depending on the headphone it is a bit hissy when what's playing is quiet. I don't recommend it as a nav system though. It's fun to play with but I wouldn't rely on it too much. The gps antenna has a tendency to drop off and gets lost for a couple of seconds which confuses the map when you get gps again and the nav system instructs you to do crazy maneuvers especially when you're barreling down the freeway. If you use common sense and ignore these obviously wrong directions, it will re-route itself and continue tracking. Re-routing calculations are much much slower than say a built-in nav or even a stand alone garmin unit. Another strike against the nav system is the database, at least for the U.S. it is from the provider that also provides the maps for Subaru and aren't as accurate as say the ones from mapquest, google, yahoo, garmin, etc. I can load maps from just about any country onto the N95 using the MapLoader software and that is free. Unfortunately if I want to use navigation, you have to pay a fee for that function. I paid for a subscription for the U.S. but when I was in Asia I couldn't use navigation without paying another subscription fee. Nice phone but skip it if you want to use navigation.

malvic Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 Thanks, I was/am looking at this. http://www.modaco.com/Paul-Reviews-HTC-P330-t248104.html The problem is the processor @ 200Mz it may be a tad slow and no 3G. But other than that it looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhsa Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 if anyone's interested, i will have a proclip LGT vent mount for sale shortly:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreoSTi Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I'm using the lower console mount for my 80G iPod; http://www.mcnproductions.com/lgt/interior/liberal1.jpg And no, the double-sided tape shouldn't damage anything when you remove it. I've had about 3-4 of these mounts over the years in various cars, and never had a problem with the tape marring anything. -Mike- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
