Description
The RAM-HOL-GA5 RAM Mount High Strength Plastic Cradle is designed to hold the following GPS units,
  • Garmin eTrex (Yellow)
  • Garmin eTrex H (Yellow)
  • Garmin eTrex Camo
  • Garmin eTrex Summit
  • Garmin eTrex Venture
  • Garmin eTrex Legend
  • Garmin eTrex Vista
All cables can stay connected to the unit while in the RAM cradle.

The Garmin eTrex Color Series WILL NOT fit this cradle. These units require the RAM-HOL-GA16 eTrex Color series cradle.

Placing your GPS into the Cradle:

Place the bottom of the GPS into the cradle, and then push the top into the expandable 'arms' at the top of the cradle. The 'arms' will snap into place when the GPS is completely in the cradle.

Included with the Cradle:

The cradle includes a set of two nuts and bolts to connect the cradle to any of the RAM compatible mounts.

Important Mounting Information:


If you already own this cradle, or any other cradle with a hole pattern that will match the RAM Diamond Plate hole spacing, then you require one of the RAM Assemblies listed below. If you are looking to purchase a complete mount for the above cradle, take a look at the Complete Mount list below.

This cradle does not ship with a RAM ball. To add a 1 inch ball to this cradle you need to purchase either the Aluminum Diamond Plate with 1 inch ball (RAM-B-238) or Plastic Diamond Plate with 1'' ball (RAP-B-238). If you need to mount this cradle on a 1.5'' ball system, you will require the Aluminum Diamond Plate (RAM-238).

  • RAM Mount Garmin eTrex Series Cradle RAM-HOL-GA5U (View this item)

ETREX MOUNT IS GREAT!

Ram has produced a high quality product that works with it's universal attachment system. It is also possible for the user to create their own attachment to suit their specific needs.

In my case I created a custom clamp for my own purpose which was mounting on my bicycle. The mounting back on the Ram mount can use standard 1/4 X 20 screws to attach to anything you want it to without interfering with the eTrex.

My only concern with this particular Ram product is that the two tabs at the top must be bent out to allow the GPS to slide into the body of the mount. I see no evidence of fatigue at this time but over the long run if the GPS is repeatedly put in and taken out of the Ram mount the tabs could potentially break. If the tabs at top break the GPS should just slop around rather than fall out so the failure can be easily noticed without loosing your eTrex.

As a whole the product is very good. It holds the GPS securely while not making the overall size much larger. It is easy to mount and appears to be made from quality material.
