Middle of windscreen just above the dash FTW.

As said then passengers can look at it.

I have sound off on mine so just glance.

Like I was saying, its not the sat navs I have a problem with, its the half dozen drivers every couple miles I see drifting or swerving about with fingers on sat navs. If someone in your family was killed or injured (not that this has happened to me, touch wood) by someone proven to have been using sat nav whilst driving, maybe you would change your mind?

For gods sake! They go to the right and at the bottom of your windscreen!!!


not every car is designed the same and therefore if i put mine on the right at the bottom, i have the leads dangling right across the steering wheel and around the gear stick which is far more dangerous then putting it in the middle at the bottom.

if you don't like it, well, i don't care

Mines on mute all the time. Do about 4k a month with it like that, hate listening to the instructions. Having a quick look at the screen is no worse than checking your speed if you think about it..
