When I bought my Multispace last summer, I felt I could not justify the expense of the built in satnav. Then at Christmas i bought a TomTom. I'm delighted with it, except for its location, on the front window. First you need gorilla arms to program it without taking it off its mount and second, where I live in rural France, the potholes encourage the satnav (with or without its mount) to leap of the window and hurtle to the ground. (I don't trust systems which require adhesion to a window, particularly when it gets very hot here.)
I would prefer to mount the satnav nearer me, on the central console. I had been thinking about making some sort of plug for the storage hole in the central console (number 6 in the attached diagram). Then, last week I got talking to a guy in the carwash queue and he said he had found a mount designed specifically for this hole, on some sort of accessories site in Germany. The queue moved forward before I could ask for its address.
Does anybody have any ideas about a TomTom mount using this handy circular space?
