Re: Garmin GPS
I didn't know there was a Nuvi 320 model.
Bloody hell, if it really does happen, I might just HAVE to get one!

I wasn't happy about some things about the Garmin setup.
1) The charging/power cable running from the cigarette lighter to the device is too ugly to look at on a daily basis
2) I can't charge my phone or do anything with the 12v socket when I'm using the device. I want the socket to be free
3) When I pull the key out, current is still being drawn to charge the device and it forces me to dismount it even if I don't feel like it
So, off I went to Ah Wee and asked him to fix it for me. "No problem!" he said.
Here's the process:
Cut the damn thing
Extend the cable
Fused for safety
Tapping power from somewhere down there
Running the wire under A pillar trim. Good view of the curtain bags at the same time
Done! The result:
Much much better.
No more ugly wire, 12v socket is free for other use, power is cut when I switch off the engine.
Now I can sleep peacefully...
Well, not really, cos my Vorsteiner bonnet is in Singapore already but stuck at customs. I'll update on that once that is done...

also, technically, text to speech means not only talk, it translate the road names into speech.
Most, if not all garmin gps can talk one! but no tts.
