+norbl Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I bought the portable friction mount (beanbag), and I mistakenly thought that is all I needed, but I guess I need some kind of holder for the gps unit. For the life of me, I can't figure out what is the other part (at buy.garmin.com) is that goes with it. Do I use the dash mount (010-10274-00) and slide it in the friction mount?

I have the Garmin friction mount, and it works great! My attachment to fit my GPS in mine came in the box with the GPS. I got a Legend HCx though... Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 If you purchased the HCx, I hope you saved the box 'cause the little adapter you need is loose in a little plastic bag. Quote Link to comment
sanramonhunter Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 You need the dask mount garmin Part #010-10274-00. It will include the base, which is the same as the base clip on your beanbag mount, just with adhesive to mount to the dash instead of the bean bag. All you really need is the arm, but I don't know if they sell that seperatly. I had the same problem with my i3 Streetpilot. Had the mount on my dash from the 60csx, but couldn't find just the arm attachment. I called Garmin for the Part # for just the arm and they told me they didn't sell it just as an arm. So instead they just gave me the arm attachment for free with free shipping. So give them a call. Even if they don't give it to you for free you should be able to get a part #. Quote Link to comment
+pigpen4x4 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Be careful with the beanbag mount. I gave up on mine after it dove off the dash a couple of times, with GPSr attached of course. The last time it scratched the screen, and I havn't used it since. Quote Link to comment

I have the clip, and I mounted it to the Garmin, but I really do see how it fits into the bean bag mount. Quote Link to comment

That sounds like what I need. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
