Don't think the cup holder would work on the 370! Would be way out of line of sight.

Look at Modshack's custom mount. Search should bring it up.

I believe Modshack has recently come up with a new variation of GPS mount, the one I was referring to that ModShack came up with is shown here...

Friction mounts SUCK.

Invest some time and build a custom mount or some money and buy one from ProClips. They have a bunch of options that beat the crap out of a friction mount.

I just suction cup it to the lower left sid of my windshield. But I only use it when I go on trips. It's never in my car anyways.
