Is it just a friction fit or is it secured some other way?

There's a clip on the side, so you drill it to the right size and slide it in past the clip and that holds it in

Not a friction fit - there are snap mounts that hold it in place. My has held solidly ever since I installed it, btw.

It presses in and there are little nubs that pop out to hold behind the hole. It fit perfect in my Honda Civic hole . I have had no problems with it pulling out.

Anything that plugs into it is a friction fit like a regular cigarette lighter in a car. The 12V adapter itself can be secured to something on your motorcycle. I keep mine underneath the seat and when I need it I plug into it and put the seat back.

Drill the right-size hole (3/4", I think), then notch the top part just slightly. There are flanges the pop out on the sides that hold the adapter in the hole, and the slightly bigger one by the hinge keeps it from rotating once in place. This works perfectly in both vehicles I installed it in.... almost looks like a factory item.

I have, because I tightened it too tight. Just snug it up, and you'll be ok.

It doesn't snap in place, but it is held by the two screw like things on the sides. It should be pretty secure. Yours might be defective.

It has a rubber ring around the bottom. I have no problem with it slipping.

no, it is very secure. it goes in with a definite snap, and stays put till you reach for it.

It's normal. It's designed to be a tight fit and that's sufficient. Don't risk losing that fit by rubbing out the threads.

Mine has never snapped in or anything but has always been really secure. It's hard to tell you if what your experiencing is normal without a bit more detail.

Good question - it's supposed to snap in place easily - but, it took us a try or two. Also, I am not very pleased with how it works. It is more of an impediment than a beneficial component.

It is a fairly tight fit. Not to hard to put on or remove. Hope this helps in your disicion.

Mine has always been a snug fit. It does become easier to close once you break it in over time.

It is a hard rubber with a textured surface. It will cause a little friction but not much.

Not at all, its almost like the "grip" isn't there, you can't see it or feel it but it works perfectly stopping slippage. Clean as you normally would.

I have no complaints with mine. It fits tight, but not so tight that you struggle with getting the tape on and off when changing it out. it also has a tension screw

It uses suction to stay attached which eventually comes loose so you'll have to reattach frequently, and it may come loose as you're using it. If this is something you'll be using long-term, I strongly suggest purchasing an item that's permanently secured.

It's a pretty loose fit. I find mine will only stay in if the USB cable is plugged in, snug and secure.Overall not a great investment.

For me it is very secure. It fits so tightly sometimes I have trouble getting it on and off. Hope this helps. I love this dryer!

Yes, it is very secure. It has a Velcro strap that you pull to tighten. So you can dictate how tight you want it.
