That should be all you need. It will take you 10 minutes max to
accomplish... Good luck!!

What a sweet piece of equipment by the way... I thought I would remove
the magnets in the GX30 antenna so I wouldn't have to mess with the
Whiskey compass getting spatially disoriented... I found the
instructions for removing the magnets (excellent detailed instructions
by the way) and sat down to perform the surgery. Imaging my suprise
(and delight) when there were no magnets to remove!!

I knew that the 496 didn't contain the dreaded magnets but I thought
all the 396's did. Guess Garmin really did "feel our pain".

How about scanning those instructions and posting them somewhere? My
396's antenna needs to be admitted for surgery as well...
