Dash Tablet Support - Mmarsh1972

Hello All

I recently got a Drivesmart 86 (with the BC40 rear cam).

The GPS itself is fine, but the Garmin Windshield suction cup mount SUCKS! The moment it gets cold (any extreme temperature change) the GPS falls off the windscreen. I nearly had an accident it startled me. I have temporarily removed until until I find a better solution

Does anyone know of a GOOD 3rd part dash mount for a 8" tablet. Garmin's own friction mount is not compatible (I know I tried).

An 8" tablet would be better mounted on the dash using a Brodit mount rather than obstructing the windscreen.
