For a few years I was pulling a poly bag over the top of my Nuvi during the occasional drop of rain; a ziplok is a high-class-2nd-generation bodge IMO.
I mainly bought the ebay thingie for the bracket to support the Nuvi = an all in one solution to the poly bag bodge and holding it on the bars.
I guess you have some form of more robust bracket, possibly bolted through the windscreen.

Probably the case - I just thought it would be good to hear from someone who uses both.
For tracking, I have used a smart phone app, and my use of the Nuvi is decreasing as I experiment with various apps.
:offtopic::offtopic::offtopic: For the bodger theme.

There's always a bunch of them for sale on ebay, for peanuts as folks upgrade or dispose of the unwanted Chrimbo gifts received from great-aunts.
