GPS user must have....
I got this on 3 weeks ago, I use it with my Garmin nuvi 360 and I always put my GPS under radio, most of the time it can't pick up signal..., after I got this antenna install and face it to top of deskboard, it work excellent and signal pick up right away when I turn it on and get full bar, I will recommand this to every one and price is cheap....then other brand.

Good Product
I received a Garmin 550c as a gift. I didn't like having to remove and attach the GPS unit everytime I parked the car. Leaving on the glass wasn't an option due to theft problems.
I ended up mounting the GPS unit low down on the right side of my dash next to and to the right of the radio. This presented a new problem because my heavy (5%) tint blocked the sat. signals almost completely.
A friend suggested that I try this antenna and see if it make any difference.
All I can say now is WOW !! I can not believe the difference this antenna makes. I went from NO bars in my garage to FULL bars everywhere. The GPS takes less than 10 seconds to link up with the sats. and I have yet to lose reception ANYWHERE !! I used to lose the signal sometimes on my way to work when the GPS unit was attached to my windshield. Not anymore !!
Mounting it was easy (put it on the far right side of the dash near the very bottom) and there was plenty of wire to hide almost the entire thing in the dash.
The connector seems strong, I get a great signal now.
The only CONS I have noticed are that the magnets seem weak and the name "GILSSON" is stamped acoss the entire face of the antenna in white.
Because the name is across the antenna, I didn't want to mount the antenna on the outside of the vehicle thus encourging thefts. Right now I just use my sun deflector in my windshield to block the antenna from being seen.
Great Product !!!

external antenna for a garmin nuvi 660
only real good place to mount my GPS in my car is under the stereo, down between the dash and console, and the reception for it was pretty crappy, best i ever seen was 20-25 foot accuracy. i put this little jewel on the roof of my car, hooked it to the nuvi, and now, every gps satellite it picks up is pegged on the power meter, and accuracy has dropped to 8-9 feet. good enough for me!!!

poor construction, poorer customer service
The 90 degree connector makes sense, but is poorly constructed and cannot stand up to daily disconnects. The magnet is a silly idea, it just adds weight, puts your device's memory at risk if it gets too close, and will likely go unused if you're using this on your dashboard like most folks.
Trying to exchange my device with Gilsson failed - customer service ignored my emails, did not return phone calls, had no idea what happened to my RMA when I did get through, and finally claimed that my return was never received.
You likely bought a Garmin device because you appreciate the quality of their products; why not buy a Garmin brand accessory as well? Buy from Gillson at your own risk.

Works Great!
Works great, and costs far less than the Garmin model. I get 5 bars inside the house now, so I can run my trip searches inside.
