EXCELLENT FOR GARMIN 76CSX
I struggled with the Garmin mount for a long time. This is MUCH better. Easy,robust, secure. I simply installed just the diamond base mount RAP-326MU on my atv, snowmobile, and motorhome. Simple, effective.
Pros: robust, simple
Recommend: YES

REALLY POOR QUALITY
The problem with this mount is poor craftsmanship. Mine broke after two weeks. In order to install the GPS unit, you need to spread the two legs at the bottom of the mount. As you do that, damage occurs. After about five installations, the legs break. RAM will replace them as they have a lifetime warranty, but in reality what is the point if it keeps on breaking. I have told RAM about this, they did not reply.
Pros: nil
Cons: it breaks as easy as styrofoam
Recommend: NO

RAM MOUNT FOR GARMIN GPSMAP 76CSX
Perfect fit, well made and rugged. I have mounted on a motorcycle. GPS removal and inserting will be done frequently and is easy to do. This is my second RAM GPS Cradel. I had one for another GPS model.
Pros: secure fit for gps mounted on a motorcycle
Cons: none
Recommend: YES

CRADLE
I'm giving the cradle a 3 star rating because it has 1 great quality and 1 bad quality. It's great 'cause once you finally have your gps "snapped" in the cradle it's not going anywhere with good visibility. It's bad 'cause it feels like I'm going to break it just to get the gps in or out of the cradle.
Recommend: YES

This cradle is poorly designed. It is very difficult to get the 76Cx/76CSx in to and out of the cradle. The lower arms must be severely bent to get the GPS in and out and this is best done using two hands. I honestly don't expect it to last long.
Recommend: YES

USED ON SNOWMOBILE
I have a Garmin 76cs and used mount RAM-B-138-GA14 to mount it on my snowmobile. Thing works great! I was afraid that with all the bouncing and jarring motions, that it wouldn't hold steady unless I tightened it ridiculously tight. Well, I was worried for no reason. I mounted the base to the dash with four nuts and bolts, and put the rest together per the directions, and it was surprisingly stable. I can position it perfectly for use while riding, and it didn't move at all while riding. I highly recommend this item! Now, I'm ordering a similar setup for the car!
Recommend: YES
