I had trouble with my 2610 getting good reception on the dash of my H2 Hummer due to the angle of the windshield. It seemed that every time I had to make a crucial turn, I got the “lost satellite” message, especially where there were overhanging trees. The Garmin antenna is $99 and I wasn’t sure if it do that much but for $20, I figured “What the heck”.

Well … It’s like having a different animal. Country roads with lots of trees and in the city with tall buildings my 2610 never misses a beat and the sensitivity is +- 8 feet.

I mounted it on the roof and the magnet base keeps it put even through the car wash. I ran the thin wire along the door frame and under the weather-stripping into the cabin. You can’t even see it. I’m very happy with my purchase and highly recommend it to anyone that has the lost signal problem.

It took awhile for me to find just the right curve in the handle bar as well as the Nuvi:50 mount to close it enough for the screw to catch. Its tight now but still not closed. If I tighten it any more I will damage the threads and then it’s finished.
I am not completely happy with it nor would I recommend it to anyone.
