I have a 196 yoke mount. Works great. Also have a 530. Use them both. The
Garmin 196 is a great battery backup and the yoke is a fine place to mount
it. Near the hands and the eyes.Properly installed, there is no restriction
issues at all.

Hi,

Planning to put a GPSmap 196 for backup in my Cessna 172 I
would appreciate to learn whether somebody has mounted a 196 on a
172 yoke? May I learn about the mounting gear used - original
Garmin or OEM hardware like RAM?
How about drawbacks or pros experienced with either gear?
