[C320-list] Garmin 230 Chartplotter

[Chris Burti]

Irv.
I just took a quick look at the manual downloads for the 230 and the 530 on
the Garmin website. At first blush it does not appear that the Garmin units
'fit' any particular cutout. It looks like there is only a cable cutout and
that they are then flush mounted with screws through the back. It also
appears that the newer ones should fit over the old holes, but you may need
a new flush mount kit and the screw hole might have to be relocated.

If this is correct, you should be able to pick any unit you like and install
it.

FWIW, I didn't have room in my pod and didn't want to pay the price to add
one when I purchased my GPS/Map 498. I installed an equipment clamp on my
pedestal guard and mounted the OEM Garmin swivel bracket to that...works
fine and looks good.
