A Solid GPS Mount: FREE!
Having looked everywhere for a cheap, secure GPS mount, I sat in the garage, staring stupidly at Lolly's speedometer. I turned the suction cup mount over and over in my hands....

I've been mounting mine on the Speedo too, when I've needed to use it, though I put it further left than what you do, but come on...do you really need a "Special" GPS Mount other than what came with your Unit you've already paid $200+ for??!!
Garmin Nüvi 755 mount
This is how mine is mounted, didn't want to lose view of ScanGauge:

Would be easy to mount it much higher, if you did not have the ScanGauge.
The Power (& traffic antenna) cable was easy to completely hide behind the Tach.
I used the 'Sticky' Dash Mount which is 'Articulated' by both the Nuvi Cradle Ball

and the second ball (w/tension ****) at base of the mount.
I did not expect to fit the Wide Screen Nuvi 755 in that location at all, nevermind w/ScanGauge.
It was $8.10 from AMAZON.COM I tried the Garmin Suction Cup mount on my Speedometer,
but found that when I tilted it toward me, it popped off the Ball.
SEMSONS.com sells a Suction Cup Mount with the same 'Double-Ball' articulation for $5.99
which would allow much more 'adjustment' than the Garmin mount on your windshield or speedo.
