Tomtom go 300

I have just finished fitting my TTG 300 in my glovebox with the permanent docking kit so I thought I would share the pic.

For those that don't know the car kit does the following:
Direct power charging from your car battery (12V).
TomTom GO switches on/off with your car ignition.
Very clear voice instructions over your car stereo.
The car stereo will mute for the TomTom GO voice instructions.
Day/night view of your TomTom GO can be set to switch on and off automatically with the headlights.

I recently took it to the USA but the car I hired did not have a cigarette lighter socket up front so I had to stick it on the rear window of the mini van where there was a power point. I had no problems driving just to voice prompts.

I fitted the kit myself. I don't like the idea of it stuck to my windscreen or anywhere else on show. You need to remove the TTG as well as the windscreen mount if you parked up as the scum know exactly what to look for. So I program the TTG, shut the golvebox and listen for directions from Jane.

I had no problems fitting it or getting the headlight sense pin to work and it was just plug and play. The phone routing can't be done on the 300. I have a SE bluetooth car kit and during calls the TTG takes priority during voice prompts.

Yeah I know a lot people on other forums are having problems with the headlight sense. I just checked that all the pins had the right voltages on before I plugged the docking kit in. How difficult can 0v day /12v for night be? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I prefer things hidden like the AndyMac sub upgrade. I know what you mean about easy of use but I prefer it hidden, perhaps the 700's remote control has a use after all.
