Need some Magnetic waterproof USB recommendations

bosstone74 · 10-26-2007, 04:58 PM

I'm getting sick of my old Rand Mcnally serial gps sitting in the back of my tinted window not picking up signals for such a long time. So I thought it was about time to upgrade. I need it to work with copilot...any recommendations?

Thanks much!

I don't know about copilot but I've got a Globalsat BU353 and it's magnetic but doesn't have to be waterproof in my case because it's attached to my crossmember behind and below the dash and it still picks up about 10 sats no matter where I am.

Sonicxtacy02,

Have you painted yours? Want mine to match...wondering if it would affect it greatly?

no i didnt paint mine but i cant imagine it would cause an issue unless it was some sort of metalic based paint. I'd definitely take it apart before painting it though.
