WHEW! HELLO Everyone I am so excited to share with everyone my new DIY... But first THANK YOU TO Dom.five, and Frozen E for thier support.

Since April I first posted this, I was really into this especially when I had my 12 hour trip to Vancouver I kept on putting my cigarette charger for the GPS. So I took the chance and Dom.five was right, midifications have to be done. I didnt go too much, a friend of mine somehow modified the dock and i just drilled a hole at the dashboard for my wires to go through attached to the radio 12Vwires. and WalaH! I like the LOOKS.
And also have a picture of my IPOD holder with the wires passing thru the air vent and pass thru the glove compartment for a CLEAN NO WIRES LOOK and this I THANK ABULEVAN.
Lastly my under dash blue lights with blue switch by the gear panel.

ANY COMMENTS.....HOPE you love it COZ I DOOOOOO LOVE IT.......

I love that GPS mount. Looks clean. What are all these parts? Fill the EOC world in with this info! And, you're very welcome. Anytime, friend.

Nice clean look - great work

Looks like you just yanked the housing from a Nissan and put it on the dash, right? How did you mount the housing to the dash... bolted? Or is that some sort of non-slip bottom you have around its edges?

More details.

Looks like a nice install. Is it difficult to see the GPS screen when it is located there? Are you able to close the door with the GPS in place?

Nice mount. That gives me a few ideas. It looks like a trip by a Nissan dealer to check this thing out is in order. I want to mount my cheaper Nuvi to it and would need to mod the mount like you have done.

looks sicks i wonder if u could cut the outline of the gps housing into the dash to lower the housing coouple inches so it wont stick out that much...

ive been wanting one for my e since i saw it on the nissan... please do tell where and how.

That install came out real well!

How did you mount it on the dash?

And how is the reach from where you are?

When I had mine on top of the dash, I was having to reach out to it. But I'm short.

Revised for Easy Reach

Thanks all for looking!

As Snuff was saying I am only 5'8" and it was indeed hard to reach. So I moved it closer.
The guy I bought it from no longer have stocks availble and I searched Ebay again and there is this guy who has 3 availble. I have to mod it a bit to make it look good as this is for nissan xterra. it has 4 clips which you just clip on if u have the xterra. Search "Garmin GPS Docking Station Xterra Frontier Pathfinder"
If you are interested search the Western Canada Section. there you would see guys helping me out.
Just drilled a hole underneath the dock for th wires to go through and attached it to at the radio 12V. I do not want to make it permanent yet so i just used a double sided tape.
here are the new pitures..
Enjoy all and Thanks to all for the inspiration.....
