Case is hard shell for protection. The photo appears to show what looks like a Garmin Nuvi to me with the adaptor and dash mount tucked neatly in the pocket of the case. Forget it. There is probably enough room for it all, but unless your dash mount folds flat it does not fit as shown. Even removing the GPS clip from the swivel ball mount, you are still left with the rigid ball arm and base that simply does not fit as shown. If you try and use the storage pocket, you simply cannot close the case as the suction base presses on the unit. Can you make it fit? Sure, by sticking the suction base along side the GPS unit itself and not using the pocket as shown and somewhat forcing the case closed. Don’t know about other makes, but I do not recommend whatsoever for Garmin Nuvi.

There are two types of GPS carrying cases out there. There are small, light, clip-to-your-belt cases that are good for carrying your unit when you leave the car for a while, and don’t want to leave your GPS behind to tempt thieves. But it’s also nice to have a safe and sturdy place to store your GPS between trips. This just might work for you.
I use the case to hold my NUVI and a spare power cord. The cigarette lighter adapter on my main cord self-destructed once, and since then I’ve always carried a spare with me. The main power cord I leave attached to my beanbag-like “Garmin portable friction mount” (a must-have item for NUVIs, much better than a suction cup on your windshield), and just wind it a couple of times around the base. The friction mount, and this case, stack up nicely on a shelf until I need them, and then I have only two things to grab and take with me.
One reviewer mentioned the suction cup mount won’t fit inside the case along with the NUVI and power cord. I threw mine away, so I can’t say either way. If you are still using the suction cup, and want to stow it with your GPS, this case probably isn’t for you. But if you use the friction mount, and want to bring a spare power cord handy, this works great.
