Garmin 60CSx back cover fix

[Jerry Adams]

The back cover on my Garmin 60CSx broke – the latch that keeps it closed.

I called Garmin customer service and they said they'de send me a new cover … for $30.

Mostly I'm posting this just to complain about Garmin customer service. I think they should just send me a new cover.

I think their GPSs are great.

I bent a small piece of Aluminum and drilled a hole
