Make sure that you really need this adapter. Amazon shows it as an accessory for GPS units that aren't compatible with it.

The Garmin 010-10065-00 Cigarette Lighter Adapter does not fit the Street Pilot c340 and I had to return it. Amazon website needs to be changed to the correct adapter for the Street Pilot c340

This is the wrong adaptor for the Garmin 350, although Amazon has it listed as an accesory for that product.

Works exactly as you'd expect. The connector plugs easily into the back of the GPS, a perfect fit. One point to note, however, is that since the connector cable is designed in such a way that the cable goes down the back of the GPS unit rather than off to the side, it gets in the way when trying to clip the receiver into the car windshield mount. Therefore, if you want to use both the mount and the cigarette lighter adapter, you need to first mount the receiver, then plug the cable in afterwards. A side-effect of having to do this is that when you remove the receiver from the cradle, it knocks the power cable off the back of the receiver for you. Whether or not you wanted the power cable disconnected (leaving the car and taking the receiver with you) or not (getting a closer look or handing it to someone else in the car) is up to you.

I bought this adapter to run my Garmin 60CSx GPS when travelling in the car to a geocache. Saves on batteries, particularly for long drives. There is an indicater on the GPS that shows it's plugged in. When I unplug it my GPS warns me that the power has been disconnected and I'm prompted to push any key to switch to battery power. I push enter and am all set. Glad to have made this purchase.
