Overview

The Garmin 010-12464-00 is a vehicle suction cup mount that holds a compatible Garmin DriveAssist where you can see it while navigating. It attaches to a windshield or any smooth, flat surface, so you can set up the device without drilling holes or adding permanent hardware.

On a boat, this style of mount works well in an enclosed helm or pilothouse where you have clean glass and protection from spray. It also makes sense when you want a temporary setup you can move between a vehicle and a boat without changing the dash.

Key features

• Made for Garmin DriveAssist devices
• Suction cup base mounts to windshield glass and other smooth, flat surfaces
• Adjustable positioning helps keep the screen readable from the driver seat or helm
• No drilling required for installation and removal

Installation and setup

Clean the mounting surface so it is free of dust, oils, and moisture, then press the suction cup firmly to the glass. After the first few minutes of use, check that the mount is still seated and that the device stays stable over bumps and vibration.

Temperature swings can loosen suction mounts over time. A quick re-seat before getting underway helps keep the device from shifting during a run.

Compatibility and fit

This mount is intended for Garmin DriveAssist. If you are using a different Garmin navigator, the cradle interface and overall fit may not match, so verify your device family before ordering.

Use and care on board

Keep the mount inside the cabin or behind the windshield where it will not be hit by salt spray. If the suction cup picks up salt or grit, rinse it with fresh water and dry it before re-mounting to maintain holding power on glass.
