I'm planning on mounting my GPS to the main "pocket" (for lack of a better word - the triangle-looking section in front of the two cup holders) of my console.
I'm thinking of screwing the window mount to the wall of this "pocket" (I have a spare window mount in case I want to use the GPS in a different car).
What I want to know is would it be better to take the console off and bolt the mount on, or would it be sufficient (and problem free) to simply screw it on there without putting nuts on. Could the weight of the GPS unit eventually tear the mount free from the console going this route?
I know, my post is a little convoluted, but I'm only mildly handy and so my terminology may not be clear. My apologies.
Any advice will be welcome, as always.
