I know we have a couple members that have these GlobalMap 540C's. My question is, did your come with a cigarette lighter adapter?

My power cord is nothing like they show in the install instructions.

Hey D.P.

My Baja 540c came with the cig lighter cord too. I saw the hardwire for around 30-35 on the web at numerous sights...It does show that the power should be switched by an auxilery switch, so it may be a good idea to add you another switch to that nice dash and have it for the GPS, then cut off the end of your power cord and wire it into a fuse block/fuse to the battery. Also, are you using an aux fuseblock??

I was thinking about using a painless sealed for mine...just like my truck has...easy to install, and really solid built... Couple bucks though... OR I may use circut breakers like the race trucks/buggies use... Push the button to reset...

Later!

Here is the cable if you would like to get another one to hardwire...keep the cig lighter for the tow vehicle

It appears that they have repackaged the unit with the cig adapter...I actually called Lowrance and told them I needed the other cable and they sent it to me free of charge.

Ahhh!! I will call them tomorrow! I am going to use the cig for the Super Duty! Thanks for the info!
