Summary: Works Great
Review: Aside from a major collision, it will stay where you put it. Only problem is viewing the screen up on top of the dash. Too much glare, except at night. Am thinking of an external antenna, but that's another 60 to 90 bucks. Otherwise, wonderful.

Summary: Just does not stay.
Review: I purchased the navigation kit but found that when driving a bit sporty, the kit does not stay on the dashboard at all, landed on the floor each time. Eventually placed it on the center console but that is not the right spot to look at the iQue 3600.
Bought the windshield suction cup and found that that works 100 times better than this navigation kit.
Unless, you have a flat dash board and do the 0-60 mph in about a minute or more, don't buy this kit but go for the suction cup.

Summary: Necessary accessory
Review: If you bought an iQue 3600, you need to buy the Auto Navigation Kit. First of all, it acts as a charging cradle in the car, so you don't have to worry about battery life while driving. Secondly, it has an amplified speaker which will let you hear the spoken turn directions even over your stereo. You may not like the "bean-bag" mount that it uses, but it's currently the best option available, unless Garmin makes a similar mount designed to clip to a vent or somewhere else more permanent. On a final note, I've never seen the bean-bag slip, no matter how fast I've driven.

Review: It stays put, it charges, and in New York city it's absolutely indispensable for getting good reception on the run.

Summary: What should have been in the iQue 3600 package.
Review: Once you start using the Auto Navigation Kit for the
iQue 3600 you might wonder why Garmin left it out of
the iQue 3600 package. Its what makes the iQue 3600
usable as a vehicle GPS unit.I have used it both in light-to-medium offroading,
and in a car with a sloping and smooth dash. In either
case the bean bag mount gripped the dash securely and
stayed put despite my apprehensions that it would come
off during unfavorable road conditions. The unit includes a speaker and a volume control
and allows you to hear turn-by-turn directions in
an amplified voice. Note however that if you really
turn up the volume, it causes significant distortion.
The base that connects to the iQue 3600 can be
rotated to face any direction, and also comes off
if you want to use the connector w/o the bean bag
mount.

Summary: Auto Navigation Kit is a "Must-Have".
Review: The Auto Navigation Kit is a must-have accessory to be able to use the iQue while driving. The mount is extremely flexible for orienting the unit for best viewing. I have used it on three different dashboards without any problems. The non-slip base keeps its grip even in hard maneuvers. The speaker that is built into the power cord is clear and it can be turned up to a high volume to overcome road noise. I made a sunscreen hood to reduce the glare on the iQue screen using matte black cardboard and Velcro. I would consider this a must-have accessory too.

Summary: You really do need this if you have the IQue 3600
Review: The friction mount makes it easy to use my IQue in the car. It keeps the screen in easy view, and the speaker on the plug makes it easy to hear the turn by turn directions. I am very glad I invested in the auto navigation kit. It does work best on a flat dash board. The dash in our suburban slopes away toward the windshield, so you have to turn the GPS sideways to keep the antenna from hitting the windshield. My sedan has a flatter dash and it works perfectly. You will be able to locate the unit pretty much any place on the dash where you can stand a coke can.
