I was about to buy the kuda mount when I made it to step 3. Which if any of these do I need to buy?

The adapter with the AMPS template


Or the adapter with the trim ring:

 

I got the trim ring for my setup because it looked the cleanest when all done (IE, the screws do not show and blends in with the dash very nice). I have not seen an install yet on a mini using the amps type bracket. Hope that helps.

 

That answers my question. I've only ever seen the AMPS style but thought it could look cleaner. Just ordered the trim ring setup.

 

Mine came with the trim ring when boyfriend just asked for the one for my Nuvi. Looking at both I like it better anyway.

P.S. They have an Ebay store, mine was a little cheaper than from the site.

 

In retrospect, I recommend the trim ring version since it looks cleaner as others have mentioned. I got the other one for my Kuda mount thinking it had a hinge that could swivel, but it doesn't.

 

I got the Kuda mount with the trim ring set up for my Nuvi 650. Can anyone tell me how to install this-in very clear, basic layman terms, "first grade level" instructions-I'll be doing it myself & am terrified of doing it too. I see the pictures but they aren't much more clear than mud to me. I'm sure I can do it, but can you guive me step by step and what you use and pictures too? I'd sure appreciate it very much and so would Cricket. My husband isn't in to helping me on this one. .........so it's all on me. I secretly think he's a bit jealous of my new toy

 

The included directions are inadequate for newbies like myself.

Installing the mount would have been impossible for me if not for unixgal's excellent instructions:
