bezojr Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 I bought an Etrex Vista C then realized the new line was being introduced in a couple of weeks. I returned the unit but blanked on the Accessories. I am going with the 60Csx so will not be able to use them now. I have a 12V power cable for the car, a nylon and rubber case with belt clip and a dashboard holder. All three together add up to about $55.00. Make me a reasonable offer and you'll save them from sitting on my office shelf for the next 5 years. All three together, I don't feel like packing three seperate boxes. I'm thinging I am not as lazy as this sounds.

+Sokratz Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 The 12 volt power cable is the same for the VistaC and the GPSMap 60csx. Just thought you might want to save yourself some time and keep that piece. I bought an Etrex Vista C then realized the new line was being introduced in a couple of weeks.

The owner of a Legend C or Vista C could not use the one in the link. Thought I'd let you clear that up before shipping them. Happy Trails! Candy Quote

Candy Thanks Moosiegirl, I looked at Amazon again and couldn't find a seperate mount for the color unit. I am fairly sure this is the one I have and am really sure the Vista C mounted fine. Sokratz, I'll look into it more thank you. I thought the ones pictured had round four pin connectors and the one I have is a mini USB. I guess I'll keep it until I get the 60. Ok, so I have a mount a casea and perhaps a power cord. Quote
+Sokratz Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Sort of. The 60Csx has both a serial connection (the round connector) and a USB connector (the power connector. So the VistaC power should work. Verify it first, though. Sokratz I bought an Etrex Vista C then realized the new line was being introduced in a couple of weeks.

GreatCanadian Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 The Legend C and Vista C and the earlier etrexes as well, all use the same mount. It does fit. Quote
bezojr Posted March 30, 2006 Author Posted March 30, 2006 So the case and mount are gone. I will hold onto the power cord and see if it works for the 60Csx which will be delivered today. Great forums, great site. Quote
