Overview
The Garmin 010-12953-01 is an automotive mount kit that lets you mount and power a compatible zumo XT or Tread 5.5-inch navigator on a vehicle windshield or other smooth, flat surface. It’s a practical way to move your unit into a car or truck without juggling loose cables or setting the device on the dash.
This setup is especially handy for boaters who trailer to different ramps, bounce between marinas, or run a chase vehicle for fishing and regattas. You get a secure viewing position and continuous charging from a standard 12V accessory outlet while you’re on the road.
Key features
- Suction cup windshield mount for smooth glass and other clean, flat surfaces
- Cradle-style bracket made to hold compatible zumo XT and Tread 5.5-inch units for in-vehicle viewing
- Vehicle power cable for powering and charging from a 12V accessory outlet
- Black finish that blends in with most dashboards and interior windshields
- Useful for trailering days when you want the same navigator in the tow vehicle between home, ramps, fuel stops, and the marina
Compatibility and fit
This kit is built for the zumo XT (5.5-inch) and the 5.5-inch Tread family, including the Base Edition. It is not the same automotive mount used for zumo XT2 (6-inch) models, so it’s worth confirming your device version before ordering.
Installation and setup
Clean and dry the mounting surface, then press the suction cup firmly in place and lock it down. Snap the cradle onto the mount, seat the navigator in the cradle, and route the power cable so it won’t snag on shifters, steering, or helm controls. On a boat, suction cups behave best on interior glass where the surface stays clean and out of direct spray.
Use notes for marine owners
This is an in-vehicle style mount, so treat it like an inside-the-cabin accessory if you’re using it on board, such as on a pilothouse windshield or inside an enclosed helm. For open-cockpit mounting in salt air, heavy vibration, or washdowns, a fixed mount solution is usually the better long-term approach.
What’s included
- Windscreen suction cup mount with ball joint
- Mount cradle/bracket for the compatible navigator
- Vehicle power cable
