Aftermarket GPS Questions: Garmin Nuvi 200

Hi guys,
I'm looking at a Garmin Nuvi 200. I checked it out in the store and really liked everything it has and does. It's not too expensive at 199.99 right now and I wanted to see if anyone has something like this mounted on the dash or pictures of one mounted. I really would like a charger that plugs in the center dash and holds the GPS. That would be my dream setup. That would be perfect but I haven't been able to find one. They have some other mounts that bend out from the seat or use suction cups on the dash or windshield but they don't quite cover what I need.

here ya go. Two sided tape is holding up well and I need to find some black zip ties for the cord.

Thats exactly the spot I was thinking. It really would be great if they made a charger for these that would manipulate up right there. That is extremelly close to what I want though. Thanks so much for the picture.

the dash is curved there so I had to build up layers of tape at the top and bottom of the mounting plate.

If you haven't already bought the nuvi 200 for $199, www.buy.com has the widescreen version nuvi 200W for $212. The screen is quite a bit larger on the 200W. I'm just saying...

I like the 200 though for that space. I have to measure that area and see if the wide would fit it. Thanks for posting about the price though that is a really good deal.

Just got the nuvi 200 as a christmas present with a case. Pretty excited. My parents suprised me. I'll write up a review as soon as I can. Nice addition to the mustang without taking up too much space.
