So, after using the ZUMO for the pass several months I finally lost the security screw that locks the ZUMO in the mount!

If your like me I like removing the ZUMO from the mount in case of theft while traveling or local riding. One thing I didn't like about the mount was the goofy little screw driver and screw used to lock the ZUMO to the mount. So, before I contacted Garmin I looked up another alternative from the ZUMO Forum and here's what I bought...







The order form is located here http://www.zumoforums.com/index.php?topic=1153.0

It works great and I can remove the ZUMO from the mount quick without any tools. I'd recommend it to anyone with a ZUMO and it only takes five days from Germany.

Hope this helps!

it comes from Germany??? WTF! How much?

That's what I said! Yes, it's from Germany, but it didn't take that long only about 5 business days to get it in the mail; It cost $11.00 for one and I think they give you a deal when you buy more.

hmmmm, i'm gonna assume mine is the same setup as yours so I'll prolly hafta get that finger screw deal thing too. thanks for the info!

You can easily make a new security screw driver with a small flat tip screw driver and a dremel.

Good idea, so have done this already? Post some pictures if you have any! If my memory is correct I believe you have a ZUMO 550! correct?

I haven't done it, but others have. So much for it being a "security" screw. LOL. It is really there to secure to the mount, not prevent theft. They could just unscrew the RAM mount and cut the power cord. RAM makes a keyed lock for the mount.

I have the 450.

I agree I don't know why they call it a security screw, and yes I have seen the lock (key) but I'm not sure it will fit with my setup.

i will have to order one of these.
