I love this, had to post pics. Car is a 2000 MB E320.
No messy wires hanging around and easy to take the 2610 off the RAM mount when I don't want to leave it in the vehicle.

Neat installation. Maybe RAM should make a combo mount to take both a GPS and a Valentine (or other RWR).
Excellent! I like it! I just got my 2610 this last weekend and I also got a Valentine. Where did you get the RAM mount?
I ordered my from GPS City. gpscity.com

I did a similar install with my PDA in my 2003 E320. Purchased a Bluetooth GPS receiver which can sit anywhere in the car with no wired connection to the PDA. The navitgation software works great.
The Akron mount has a built in speaker with volume control and amplifies the sound for the directions from the PDA. I did not like the vent mount arrangement so I elected the suction cup for the windshield which can be easily removed when not in use. I also have full use of the PDA when not using it as a navigation device...one of the reasons I decided to go this route instead of getting the Garmin or the Magellan 700.
Take a look at:
I could not get the images to load on your site...just the image data so if you could send me a couple via email I would like to see your setup. snipped-for-privacy@SPAMcox.net ...just remove the SPAM.

Nice photos. I also have a 2610 and a Valentine One. Did you have to turn of the "laser" on your V1 to keep it from going off when you use the 2610's remote?
I have my Valentine mounted on my visor and the 2610 in the bean bag mount on the dash. Every time I went to use the remote, the V1's laser would go off. Cops around here don't use laser so I just turned the laser feature off. Just curious if you have the same problems.
