{"product_id":"qbp348598","title":"Garmin Dash Mount Bracket, For GPSMAP 76 Series, Swivel\/Tilt, Locking","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Garmin 010-10305-00 is an adjustable dash mounting bracket for compatible Garmin handheld GPS units, with a swivel and tilt head so you can set the screen angle where you can actually read it. A locking mechanism holds the handheld in place, which helps when you are dealing with vibration at the helm or when a vehicle dash is bouncing around. It also accepts an optional external power adapter for quick connection to a DC power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mount is commonly used with handhelds in the GPSMAP 72\/72H family, the GPSMAP 76 family (76, 76C, 76CS, 76CSx, 76Cx, 76S), and GPSMAP 96\/96C. On a boat, it is a clean way to keep a handheld secured on a console or nav station while still being easy to remove when you want to carry it to the cockpit, dinghy, or dock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDash-mount style bracket with swivel and tilt adjustment for better screen viewing angles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking mechanism helps keep the handheld seated during vibration and movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts an optional external power adapter for a quick DC power connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt around Garmin handheld GPS units in the GPSMAP 72\/72H, GPSMAP 76 family, and GPSMAP 96\/96C groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks well as a fixed home for a handheld at the helm, with the flexibility to unclip and take the unit with you\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your handheld model is in the supported GPSMAP 72\/72H, GPSMAP 76 family, or GPSMAP 96\/96C lineup before ordering. These devices share the same general cradle style used by this bracket, but handhelds outside those families use different housings and will not seat correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf your GPS is in a protective case or has a bulky lanyard setup, check that the edges and latch area can still fully engage with the bracket. A secure click-in fit matters more on a boat, where repeated shock loads can work a loosely seated handheld out of a mount over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount it where you can see the screen without blocking other helm controls, and where the unit will not get kicked or snagged by lines. Leave enough clearance for the bracket to tilt without hitting a bulkhead, windshield frame, or instrument pod.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor marine installs, pick a location that stays relatively protected from constant spray and direct washdowns. If you plan to run external power, route the cable so it cannot chafe on sharp fiberglass edges and add strain relief near the mount so the connector is not carrying the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003ePower and onboard use\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen your handheld supports external power, the optional power adapter connection lets you run from the boat’s DC system instead of relying on internal batteries during long runs. That is helpful for a handheld that lives at the helm as a backup navigator or position display while the main system is off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bracket is a good match for boaters who still rely on a compatible Garmin handheld as a grab-and-go navigator, a tender GPS, or a backup at the helm. It keeps the handheld in a consistent spot for quick glances, then comes off easily when you need the unit in your hand for docking, anchoring, or scouting a shoreline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eWipe the bracket down occasionally, especially after salt exposure, and keep the swivel points free of grit so the adjustment stays smooth. If you notice the handheld is not locking positively anymore, inspect the latch area for sand or salt buildup and clean it before the next trip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269659291829,"sku":"QBP348598","price":31.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300748_qbp348598.webp?v=1771545098","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp348598","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
