I figured I'll post a couple of pics just in case.

The little wire is actually a traffic receiver I installed with the GPS, it's not part of the mount or the interface, but now it is.

I thought I posted what GPS I have, but guess all I said was Garmin. It's the 255W just the little cheapy, but was a gift so don't want to loose it and really like the idea of looking down the road and just a glance and see the GPS, no looking down at the bars,etc. Thanks to all

While you are correct the zumo weighs more than a nuvi I can tell you this. My zumo 660 fits on the mount very snugly and it is an effort to get it on and off the mount. My adhesive is still attached to the nuvi I first bought it for but the zumo falling off does not seem possible under normal circumstances.

I just purchased a mount from that company. That mount is from Moto Mount. If you notice it is a brass ball for the Nuvi factory cradle mount. I purchase the Zuno Mount It is actuall a ram ball but they use a different name. That way I can use all my Ram Mount attachments. They mailed it out the same night I ordered (NIGHT) and I had it in a few days. http://motomount.net

Also the hard wired cable I bought for the nuvi works on the zumo so it was plug and play for me. I have had to use electrical contact cleaner a couple times from rain but I guess that is to be expected.

Can you post where you got the cig lighter adapter that works with the motorcycle mount?

I can post the part #'s if anyone wants.

Now you see it
