An inbuilt Satellite navigation system in an Audi

TTS Coupe, this saves the need for fitting an

additional unit, although it comes at a greater

cost.

‘A means of securely mounting the device is an

essential feature of all such systems’.

A mount which is designed for a specific model of satellite

navigation, which provides power to the unit when sitting in

the dock, eliminating the need for an external power supply.

The ball and socket design of this mount allows the unit to

swivel to adapt to the user’s needs. This gives freedom for it

to be mounted in any position, avoiding obstruction.

These two particular type mounts, are secured to the dashboard

rather than the windscreen, eliminating the need for unsightly

suction cups.

This type of mount features a

powered suction cup which

adapts to the contours of the

windscreen, making it universal

for all models.

This mounting unit is

secured to the handlebars

of the bicycle.
