Garmin 176 and 196 Auto Mount Description Move your GPSMAP 176 and 176 COLOR from your boat to your vehicle and back again. Change the unit's included mount from a swivel mount to an Auto Mount which allows you to slide in and out of the dash mount base.
ATTACHING THE AUTO MOUNT: The GPSMAP 176(COLOR) comes with a frame like mount with a swivel base. To attach this Auto Mount, you need to unscrew the swivel mount and screw in the round plate of this Auto Mount. Click here to see the swivel mount included with the GPSMAP 176(COLOR).
MOUNTING: The permanent disk will attach your mount, and attach it well. Don't expect to remove the mount is a hurry. If this isn't your style, try the temporary disk. Stick the mount where you need it and then remove it when you're done.
ACCESSORIES: You can purchase a second base holder for this mount. The Dash Mount is perfect for the second vehicle, the boat or even the bike (if you can find a flat surface).
This is the Non-Skid Friction mount with a dash mount base attached. Simply connect the cradle/upper part of your Auto Mount to this 'bean filled base', and its weight will hold your mount and unit right were you left it. Click here for more information.
