Default GPS Mount

Who makes the GPS mount that attaches to the stock shield brace on the R1200GS (2007) that positions the unit above the instruments? I've seen it in an ad and can't for the life of me locate the magazine it was in.

Default GPS mounting kit

Pidcocks BMW have a great unit - that mounts direct to the cross brace on the Adventure screen - possibly will also fit the GS screen? It is around £40.

Default gps/radar mount

I just purchase a mount built by Adapiv Technologies that is simply the best quality and fits directly on the windshield brace of my 08 GS.

It's great piece of equipment. Fits perfectly and its in a same color, giving Adv look. It's original BMW part for just 40 EUR. Supposed to be easy to fix but ended in just amazing job with removal of 4 securing bolts. What a story. And still ongoing with 2 of 4 screw heads stripped and impossible to remove.
