DiscoBob Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I'm just wondering if there is some kind of "audio-out" connector on the Garmin Quest handlebar bike mount? On the picture on Garmin's web page, there seems to be a connector on the mount, and the only reason for that (as I see it) is to get the audio prompts out of the unit. Could someone confirm this?

DiscoBob Posted April 30, 2005 Author Posted April 30, 2005 The picture seems to have some connector on it. What is it for? Does it really come with that connector? The part numer is 010-10507-00. Quote
+elsinga Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 What the connector is for, can be found in detail on my Quest FAQ pages (see http://www.elsinga.net/questfaq ). And yes, the connector should be there for audio out. Quote
DiscoBob Posted May 16, 2005 Author Posted May 16, 2005 Is there anyone who has bought this handlebar mount? I've checked out the the interesting Quest FAQ (tnx Robert), and have connected a ear-pice to the audio out and have found that it is working. The handlebar mount seems to be a copy of the charging cradle for the Quest, with a screw and a "pipe mount". I wonder if the connector REALLY is mounted on the real handlebar mount, or just in the picture. And if there is a connector on the mount, what can be found at the other end of the connector/cable? A 3.5mm headphone connector? 3 bare wires (GND, +5V, audio?)? Many questions, I'd like not to order a mount just to see for myself, that's why I'm asking so much. If it hasn't got the connector maybe it's better to order the motorcycle mount instead (but it's a bit more expensive). Quote
