Hard wired Garmin Nuvi 610T today.

The easiest thing in the world!

Located unit on windscreen using suction cup so unit sits just below rear view mirror.

Cut the cig lighter end adpater off, strip the wire to reveal one red and one black. Strip the casings to show about 1.5cm of wire.

Pop the front internal light cover off (small flat head screwdriver), undo the 2 silver retaining screws and unplug the larger wire connector (4 wire block).

Locate the light blue wire with with grey dashes, strip back - no need to cut, just strip back the casing, wrap the red wire around the exposed grey wire and tape up, coil the back wire around one of the retaining screws before re-fitting.

push the power cord through the roof lining plug back into the the suction cup and Bob's is your mothers brother!

Really tidy install.
