 Rating:  - external antenna for a garmin nuvi 660only 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!!!

So while it didn't meet its claims of superior performance in my old GPS, it performs on par with the original while ...

In fact, I bought two more, one for my husband and one for my in-laws! |
