KIM, Do you regret installing the monitor in the sun visor? Looks akward to me. Just wondering. My screen is being mounted as I type and I shoud have the H2 back by noon CA time. I will post some pics. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, I don't regret it at all. After having one mounted about where the factory stereo is on my previous vehicle, I much prefer the visor mount. With the audible directions, I don't need to see the map normally. With the voice recognition, I don't need to see the map to enter a destination. When I enter a new destination, I pull down the visor, enter it, move the visor back out of the way and then get on my way. If I do want to see it for some reason, I pull down the visor and move it all the way forward - I can see the screen without taking my eyes from the road. I will say that it would be a pain if it weren't a voice activated system and I had to access the screen to do anything. For example, on my old system, I had to hit okay to get past the lawyer screen every single time I started the car. On this system, it can be set to automatically okay out of the lawyer screen or you can simply say "okay". No need to access the screen.

Mine's a 6 inch screen so not significantly smaller. I don't have any problems seeing it.
