Is the 080x docking socket universal?

[tooshy]

I currently have an 0801 installed in my wife's car. Her unit just packed up in that it doesn't record anymore - it basically corrupts the sdcard every time it tries to record, and we've tried multiple cards.
So, I'm thinking of changing the unit to the 0805 (not 0806 due to reliability issues). My question is will the 0805 work on the 0801 docking unit currently glued onto my wife's windshield or would I need to remove it and reinstall?

I had my 0805 in my 0801 dock (non-GPS) for a few days before I finally wired my 0805 (GPS) mount. everything was fine. I still don't care much for the GPS info so I could have left it as-is and have been perfectly happy with it.

the very early 0801 had a different GPS, they were replaced a long time ago though so it would need to be quite old to be one of those

Thanks for the answers guys. I'll try and just remove the old mount.
