What do you guys think? * windshield? * vent mount * incognito - small GPS velcro'd to the unused part of the gauge cluster I'm open for suggestions.

Replying to: steve_ (Mar 12, 2009 10:46 am)  I'm finding in the Celica I had it windshield mounted but now use the nice dash mount that just happened to be included in this sale. Makes it very easy to pop the thing completely out of sight when I park somewhere. Someone made some comment about someone would cut through teh top to get that thing but i don't know. I mean I leave my iPod in there and it cost more. Cell phone, too. Some day I'll time my top going down. I'll bet it's close to the 12 seconds you get on your hard top. Funny thing to me on retractable hard tops is who started putting them out - VW, Chrysler - i mean are these the folks that you want to count on a complex piece of elctrical work? Heck, the Eos even has a moon roof in the hard top!
