I'm guessing one of these type vent mounts on ebay.

...and I can easily attach and detach the unit from the mount. Oh... I also had to remove the metal piece in the ashtray to make room for the mount squeeze in.

I just mount my Nuvi 660 in the center of my dash, as low on the windshield as it will go. After you drive for a while, you don't notice that it's there anymore. Optimally, I would probably mount in the bottom left corner (left side of the steering wheel), but I realized that sometimes it's easier to have my girlfriend punch in the address while I'm already starting to drive. That way, I don't get distracted by trying to enter the address while in motion.
I can't put it anywhere else, cuz I have a massive 3.5" LCD for my Harman Kardon Drive + Play 2 just to the left of my stereo. There's nowhere else for it to go. I bought one of those cigarette lighter hubs and plugged everything into my center console 12v port.
The Garmins have a GPS antenna that you have to flip up. From what I can tell in the picture, he just shoved that into the air vent.

How did you hang the gps from the airvent?
