Mounting Bracket

[Hoffer369]

Ok...this might be a really stupid question but I'm just wondering if anyone else is having problems with their suction mounting bracket staying stuck to their window? No matter what I try and do everytime I stick it back up there it'll stay for anywhere from 5 mins to a few hours and all of a sudden just lose suction. I can understand it losing suction after a few days or so but not 5 mins after I hit a few bumps? I've tried cleaning my windows, placing it in a different spot on my window, nothing seems to work...any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I had the same problem and decided to look for a replacement. I found a great one one ebay for under $12.00 + 6.95 SH (to Canada) It has NEVER let go as it has a lever to lock it into place. It also reaches out farther to and articulates on both axis.

You can check it out here if you want:

I have also attached a picture... Good Luck JR

Can you post a more direct link?

I don't see the mount you are describing.

Thanks . . .

Here's a direct link I think:

From looking at the pictures, I'm not sure it will fit with the 3rd edition.

I emailed the seller, I'll let you know what they say . . .

I know the solution as it worked GREAT for me. Clean your window thoroughly with RUBBING alcohol. Let the window dry completely (only a minute or two) and then press the suction cup on there. Sticks like glue!

So it works with the 3rd edition?

I see from a closer look at the picture that it will connect to the 3rd editon. I think I'd like to get one of those too. Although I haven't had any trouble with the 'suction cup mount' that came with the unit, it looks a bit more sturdy with the handle to make it stick. This would be great for the second car.

I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for another one on ebay.

Thanx.

I just applied the adhesive disc to my dash and my TT 3rd edition sits on it perfectly with no problems. I ordered a sandbag dash mount as a back up, but to be honest I don't need it. TT sits just above my Radio/CD and is barely noticable.
