User Reviews about Garmin Automotive Navigation Accessory Pack for GPSMap 276C (010-10510-00)

Ordered Garmin Automotive Nav Pack - Amazon process, billing, shipping went great. Problem arose when I tried to use the online unlock process from Garmin to download the CD into my laptop. I could not get the unlock code on line so I phoned Garmin three times and was told I would have to wait on the phone for thirty minutes. Finally I got through to Garmin on the phone and was told yes they were having problems with the online process. They gave me a "long" code which worked fine. Security is important but Garmin made the unlocking process a real chore. Why not include the "long" code with the product in the box? Mike T. -- Amazon Great Garmin tough

This is another product that displays the Garmin marketing scheme -- sell a bare bones base unit and then get you with the accessories that you really need. If you have any intentions to use their GPSmap 276 or 376 on the road, this kit is a mandatory buy. Otherwise, the 276 or 376 can only really be used on the water. The bean bag mount is okay, but the swivel doesn't provide the ability to tilt backwards, so it doesn't work if the unit is below eye level. Take a look at the Lowrance Iway 600c, all the automotive pieces come in the box. -- Should be included with the Garmin 276 or 376

I got the 276c for my truck and boat. I love the portablility of the unit. Rather dissapponted, however with the basemaps.

Adding the auto kit has breathed new life into my GPS. The beanbag mount is very sturdy, the new maps are quite detailed and the data card allowed me to upload way more maps that I'll use in the near future.

I didn't think I'd ike the voice prompts, but I gotta admit - it's kinda cool :)

I found it a little cheaper online, but three times (not through Amazon) there were issues with filling the order. Amazon shipped that day, and I got it two days later.

Do yourself a favor - buy the auto kit, and buy it from Amazon. Saves time, tax and headaches. -- A little pricey, but well worth it
