Garmin Nuvicam question.

The Garmin nuvicam comes with the traffic antenna.
If I got the GTM 70 could I do away with the traffic antenna?

Not sure why you're suggesting this. Using the cable supplied is far better than using a GTM cable.

I can understand your issue. That's why I didn't get one. Once the real owner reviews of the new DriveAssist unit are published I may get one as they apparently now just have the TA cable

So build quality of the latest units not that clever then.

This is why I'm hanging on for real reviews.

There you go K, your first user appraisal.

Yes

The advantage I was looking for was a single easy to remove unit when parking. Currently I have 2 units to remove and the Nextbase isn't that easy.

The 2599 is a doddle to remove and with the Garmin dashmount is completely removed and concealed with a microfibre I carry around.

I've cut off that plastic spring tab. That has made it easier and with the friction it's not going to go anywhere during motion.

It's with it being behind the mirror that makes it awkward. Anywhere else and it sticks out like a sore thumb.
