shiwarrior Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I dislike my tomtom on my windscreen (it seemed ok in my last car) I found a mount for it to place it on the left hand side of the centre console, near the glove box, which I thought would be perfect anyone done this ? http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B004LOLU0K/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1QPOB2PPJ8GH4 not sure what else I need though ? I have a tomtom GO 6000 any help much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jollyandy Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Have a look on their website www.brodit.com. There's a product search that should help you find what you're looking for. Sent from my iPad using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiwarrior Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 that's the problem, I have been on their website, and confused by it all, the information isn't all there so I haven't a clue if I need to buy something else or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jollyandy Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Brodit clips come in 2 parts; the mount that attaches to the car, and secondly the mount that holds the device, which attaches to the car mount. So there are 2 parts that you need to buy separately. It looks like you've a choice of 4 mounts for your tomtom, looking at the information on the Brodit website.

shiwarrior Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Thanks mate, ill take another look and repost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnH Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 You will need to get the mount as listed in your original post followed by 1 pf these options... 1st is just the holder 2nd is the holder with a plug so that you can charge whilst in the dock 3rd is a hard wiring kit so that you can still use your ciggy socket for something else. I have a brodit for my phone that fits into the left hand of console. Good thing is that it twists so my phone can double as a sat nav.

sonic113 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 can you get these for mobile phones as well or just sat navs? are they better than the suction cup types for the window? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will invest in one maybe. Can they be places beside the driver light switch or only around the radio area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiwarrior Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 can I not just get this ? http://www.brodit.com/product.html?id=215588&pn=prod&brand=TomTom&model=GO 6000 as I have the bit that's greyed out (as it comes with the satnav) but don't understand how its screwed to the bit that goes on the dash as there are no holes ?

Jollyandy Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Hi, yes you can just get the holder you mentioned. The holes in the dash holder you make yourself, screws and full instructions are included in the kit. Thoroughly recommend using a Brodit clip, I've had them on several cars now, though only the phone clips; they are a quality product, so much better than using a suction mount.

johnH Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yeah i can confirm when i got mine there are tiny holes already and you get a set of self tapping screws...wont go back to suction cup marks on the windscreen again lol Only problem is that you cant have any cases on as they are made for a snug fit on the device only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiwarrior Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 perfect, thanks , I don't have a case on my sat nav anywhere (I didn't know they made one) only use a case to carry it around in though cheers, will order one thanks everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiwarrior Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 oh damn received my pro clip, and as nice as it is, sat nav is stupidly low now, so I am going to have to bring it up to eye level more I have something in mind, but unable to find anything I currently have this set up : http://www.drivesafeandlegal.co.uk/brodit/vehicles/Ford/Focus/2005-2010/653585.htm that mount along with the TomnTom GO 6000 (6") mount : http://www.drivesafeandlegal.co.uk/brodit/holders/TomTom/GO+6000/215588.htm in this position, sat nav is too low and its so big that its infront of my climate and radio controls ! lol so what I'd like to know is, is there a long flexi arm that I could use to extend it upwards more ? the other option would be to get this : http://www.drivesafeandlegal.co.uk/brodit/vehicles/Ford/Focus/2005-2010/653584.htm but I am not sure if I want it in front of the vent, and I'm not sure if I can angle it to see it better? (then I need to sort cabling out somehow) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
