Hey Bob!
You can have mine! I found the peg while on a cache hunt in Prescott,
and it fits a 'standard' cell phone swivel clip. I have never really
used it 'cause it's a PITA...
Driving along...
GPS in window-mount cradle with power adapter attached
Park as close as possible to GZ for cache...
Remove GPS from cradle
Remove power adapter
Screw belt-clip stud into GPS
Clip GPS into belt-clip
Walk around and (maybe!) find the cache...
Return to vehicle...
Remove GPS from belt-clip
Unscrew stud from GPS
Re-attach power adapter
Return GPS to window-mount cradle
Drive to next cache...
I much prefer a belt pouch for extra-vehicular-activity. It protects the
GPS from damage and (if you get the right one) has a pocket for spare
batteries and/or whatever.
Now RTW will tell you that you could be smart and just get a GARMIN
60C/CS, that comes equipped with such a belt-clip stud, and it doesn't
interfere with the cable connections. Just one of 2,363,036 reasons why
the GARMIN 60C/CS is the best electronic device ever created!
Cache On!
