Not bad. It’s cheap and it works. My only complaint is that the arm isn’t flexible enough. It stick out too far and gets in the way of the shifter.

Works well and does the job but fits the cigarette lighter loosly and needs a wedge to tighten it. I would by another if it were tighter in the lighter.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 200 GPS device and I used the Arkon GN097 to install it in my Honda Fit. It works perfectly, and the Nuvi is inconspicuous.
BTW, the car has a manual transmission, and when the Nuvi is attached to the GN097 and installed in to the lighter socket, the Nuvi does not interfere with the shifting of the transmission.

This little gadget works very well with my Garmin. It’s easy to install, position, adjust angle, mount and dismount the gps. Most importantly, it keeps the telltale “come steal my GPS” suction circle off of the windshield, and the GPS from slip-sliding around on the dashboard.
It would not work in all cars (or it would have gotten 5 stars) – the location of your lighter socket could be a problem, so take a good look at where and how the articulations are on this before you buy. Note that this does not give you an extra socket per se: you’ll need to switch off if you are also running a radar detector or charging a cellphone.
I’m pleased with the price and quality as well.

The product worked fine until the lighter part of the product came apart and started smoking and melted in my cigarette lighter. Not sure what happened
