A must have.

(5 out of 5) by Rheumor on Nov 25, 2002 (New Orelans)
I had my Garmin III GPS (talking street pilot) mounted on the dash of my Expedition and with its attached antenna I rarely could get (and then frequently would drop) enough satellites to give a good fix. After installing the external unit (10 minutes, no drilling!), I always had a good signal and never dropped it. Without this, the GPS is less than reliable inside your vehicle.

Great antenna

(4 out of 5) by Jeff K on Sep 30, 2005 (San Jose, CA)
Antenna works great - reception is excellent. Only complaint is that the connector to the GPS unit is difficult to pull out b/c it's small and is a tight fit. Not a big deal, though.

External Garmin GPS Antenna

(4 out of 5) by V. F. Scotto on Mar 12, 2006 (Southwest Florida)
While not required for operation, the external antenna did give an added edge when using my Street Pilot 2720. Seemed to improve response time. Helps in areas in which their are obstructions.

Must Have Item!

(5 out of 5) by Thomas W P Slatin on Apr 19, 2003 (Schoharie, NY USA)
The external antenna is essential for vehicle use. It allows the GPS to acquire more satellites faster and boosts the accuracy and reception in a huge way. It comes with a magnetic mounting, a suction cup mounting, and a screw-on mounting. It's a must have for any serious GPS user.
