Garmin sat nav mount
 
Hi all,
we have just bought a C70 coupe/convertable & the Garmin sat nav mount has broken - does anyone know where I can get a replacement?

I have - £100 with the VAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just for the folding holder!
Even the bloke in the parts department was embarrassed to tell me the price.

Every other Garmin mount is about £20 - a new sat nav is only £79.99

last time i bought one it was about £35 , i guess volvo have put the price up to stop demand from people just wanting the limited stock bracket .

Although the hinge looks broken, is it otherwise working ok? Might be easier/cheaper to add some additional support to the existing cradle.

Yes it's working fine - that's my intention to repair it if I can't get a reasonable price replacement.
I was just hoping I could pick a new one up without breaking the bank!

Hello Clan I noticed this post of yours many years ago. Can I ask how you removed the exiting mount and replaced with the new one. I have had a replacement mount but the existing one seems quite tight and afraid I might break something. Any thoughts?
