Post Your Portable Navi Pics

My wife wants to get a portable navi unit....so I thought I would check here for pictures of the units in an 8. I am looking for a clean setup where wires can be run discretely. Thanks

many portable navs today come with rechargeable lithium ion batteries, for short trips, you wouldn't need to run a wire at all...

Thought about fabricating a mount? I fabricated the entire console for the setup in my mustang... I'm not sure I can find any pictures on here since it's a new computer - but I can give you any tips you want over aim, if you please...

This is not a very good pic of a Nuvi 360 but it can give you an idea of the size. I haven't picked a spot for the permanent mounting yet but I'm thinking of just over the clock in the central display. The Nuvi has a battery life of 4-6 hours but I may try taking the charge cord into the dash and tapping in to power there. The cord that is show is actually for my radar detector next to the GPS.
