Default mounting a gps in the wrangler

I use a trail gps in the wrangler and so far its been tied around the mirror bobing around while
i drive which i did not like as it could damage the gps.
Its a garmin 60csx and i found a non destructive way of mounting it, in the first dc plug which thank god there are 2,because the gps also needs power .This was a way that i did not have to drill any holes in the dash etc.
I don't like making holes in a vehicle interior.
This looks ok and works fine and is adjustable.The parts came from an old cell mount

I also have a Garmin Hand Held (ok, i also have 2 car GPS;s also)

They do sell a variety of winshield mounts, vent mounts and cup holder mounts so you get to use your 2 12v plugins.
