Windshield mounted GPS

[DF5.4]

I'm surprised Ii haven't heard more about this.

Windshield mounts illegal in 28 states? | GPS Tracklog

I use a Garmin Oregon 450 on a mount on the windshield. I keep it low and to the left of the steering wheel. It lines up with the registration and inspection stickers.

Interesting...did not know this either.

I always put mine above my rear view mirrror towards the right not to obstruct visability. Think I will continue to do unless they start ticketing me..

As a LEO, I wouldn't stop anyone for having a GPS on thier windhield unless it's right in front of the driver. As other's have already posted, if it's off to the side, you probably won't be stopped.

If you mount it on a dash mat, you'll never have an issue, plus you won't have those annoying rings left on the windshiled when you hide it while "at the mall".

I always used a rearview mirror mount and invisicord (powers off the mirror) - very incognito this way

[in my excursion but you get the idea]




funny thing is my uncle in WA has one on the windshield of all his cars and had never had an issue but its its supposed to be illegal there?
