gps problem
Rick O asked:


I have just bought myself a S REG. Renault Laguna.
My TomTom 700 does not get any GPS reception so I have bought my self an external aerial for my unit.
My question is can any one help with where to put it ? I hear on some cars there is a sweet spot behind the interior mirror… is that the case.
Also any one have any bright ideas how to attach the GPS receiver to the screen?

    I believe some GPS units have difficulty “seeing through” UV protection glass, which your Renault might have in its windscreen. Does it have a purple-y tint to it? If so, it might be worth trying to fit the aerial at the top of the rear screen. You can get special kits for mounting rear-view mirrors onto windscreens from Halfords. You could try sticking it on with that, but make sure you clean the glass thoroughly with alcohol, otherwise it won’t stick. EvelynThe ModifiedDog.
