My new GPS mount - pics

Hi all!
Got my ProClip, and installed the GPS charger hidden behind the glove box. Looks pretty clean, and the GPS is at an ideal location for right handed people. Very easy on / off, even the mount can be removed in seconds and the mini USB plug is virtually invisible when not in use.
I tapped into a delayed fuse in the passenger side kick panel fuse box with an "add-a-fuse", works great.
What do you all think?

GPS horizontal:



GPS vertical:



From passenger side, note the USB charge cable:



GPS removed:



GPS removed: mini USB charge plug.



Charger behind glove box:

Looks good. The mouse reminds me of the beanie animal (I think it was a kangaroo) that rode shotgun on top of my rearview mirror in my SD for 10 years. My grandson gave it to me and it was precious to me.

Thanks Tim!
Wilson43: No, I don't think that would fit. The mounting surface of the proclip would be too small. But really, why would you do that? I just got this thing:
Amazon.com: ARKON APGN-VSM Vehicle Specific Mount Adapter Plate Connects 4 Hole AMPS VSM to Garmin Nuvi 17mm: GPS & Navigation

It works perfectly - and even the 4 screw holes align with the pre-marked holes on the proclip. And now you have the choice of removing the GPS from the ball (leaving the ball mount on the proclip) or sliding out both the ball mount & GPS together.
