Broken tabs on Garmin

Don't Chute!

I was out for a spin earlier and heard a small rattling noise somewhere on the bike. When I went over some bumpy ground I noticed my garmin 1030 was shaking. Turns out one of tabs for mounting it has broken off. The piece was still in the mount so I’ve super-glued it back on but I don’t hold out to much hope for that. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there an easy fix?

I think there are two options , either exchange for a refurbished unit with Garmin, or repair yourself with a Dog Ears fitting, which is glued on over the broken attachment.
The downside to that is that an external battery cant be used because the fitting covers the connectors.

There's also the raceware one which is a good deal cheaper

It uses glue/epoxy only though and no screws. I've one on a bryton GPS well over a year now

Thanks for that I’ve ordered one of them now.
