Good hard case for the Nuvi 760?

 

I am probably going to start traveling with my nuvi 760. Is there a good hard case I can get for it? The beer kuzi probably won't cut it anymore for a case smile

760 case

I have an NDS lite case that fits the 760 like it was made for it, it even has a net pouch inside that can hold cards etc. I would call it a 75% hard case.

Purchased from wallmart $10.

I'm looking for a 100% hard case. I have intentions of throwing the gps in my suit case and you know how those get thrown around.

Hard Case

I guess it should fit the 660

Give this a try

Probably have to take your unit there to give this a try.

Not sure about a PSP case

Not sure about a PSP case fitting correctly, but a Nintendo DS Lite case works well. They should have those at WalMart, too.

I don't know, I would carry

I don't know, I would carry your Nuvi on board!!
It is way to small to make it past sticky fingers at the airport.
Just me though...

I believe I have the same case, it is made by Case Logic. The case is very compact yet can hold quite a bit. In the top half with the net I keep stereo earplugs and a short USB cable.

The bottom portion holds the GPS and has an elastic band to keep the unit in place. The case is a little larger than the GPS, so what I did was take some extra foam I had and cut out a rectangular "nest" for my 750. The foam forms a border around the inside edge, and the 750 just slides right in. The added benefit is the foam provides extra cushion if you happen to drop the case. (Don't ask me how I know that!!!)

Same case

Sounds like I use the same case. I originally purchased it for an external USB portable hard drive but, when I got the nüvi 760 I decided to try the case for it and I've used it ever since. I got mine from amazon: http://tinyurl.com/6o9gl2

Pelican Hard case

Hi Steve,
I bought from E-bay a Pelican Hard case. They come in different sizes and colors, are water proof and the model that I bought fit perfectly my garmin 660.

Make a search with Pelican Case 1020 (model #1020)

I'm not sure of the dimensions of the 760 model but for sure pelican should have a model that fit it.

Pelican Case

Can you get this case at Walmart . ( Pelican 1020 )

Hi Steve, I dont't think

Hi Steve,

I dont't think that you will those cases at Walmart.

I know that some scuba/diving stores, sports equipments stores and electronic supplys stores usually have them.

I bought mine on E-Bay, here's a link to the seller i did business with. Be sure to confirm the measurments of your units before.

Portable Hard Drive cases

When the dog ate my 680 case (luckily empty) I replaced it with a CaseLogic hard case for portable Hard drives, 19.99 at Best Buy. It has an elastic strap on one side to hold the GPS anf the mesh pocket. The Nuvi is about the same sive as a hard drive.

Nuvi case

I don't have a hard case for my nuvi 750. I found them to big for my shirt pocket. I use a padded mens zippered eye glass case. The nuvi 750 fits in to it like a glove. It has a clip on it so it will stay in your pocket or you can clip it to your belt. I like to keep my gps with me when i'm not in the car, that way I know where it is. The hard case will work well if you do a lot of banging aroune or have BIG pockets. I have not seen one with a clip on it, but they may be out there.

Have a great day.

Case for nüvi 7XX / nüvi 8XX

This is the case that came out at the same time as the nüvi 880. It is designed so that the device can be operated while in the case and has a belt loop. The front cover is rigid, folds over to cover the screen and has a magnetic clasp. There is an access hole for the headphone jack when the case is closed.

It fits both the nüvi 760 and the nüvi 880 very well, is of good quality and the unit will not slip out as it could with the earlier cases.

I have a couple of these (from Best Buy) for external hard drives and my Nuvi. They work great and hold up well for use in a back pack or other bag.

Waterproof cases @Walmart

Walmart DOES have waterproof hard cases. They're in the camping section. At least mine does.

The Pelican ???

Didn't know that they carry them.
Are they the ones made by Pelican ???

Navigon case at Radio Shack

Radio Shack has a Navigon Case for either 4.3" or 3.5" GPS for $7.99. Its a very nice leather case and for that price its a steal.

However this is NOT a hard case.

Thanks Speedy

I took your advice and purchased a NDS case for my 760. It works great for my 760. Also In the middle of the case there is an elastic band, which is made for a stylus pen. I did not have a stylus pen so I looked for one at Wal-mart while I was purchasing the case. The guy helping me just happened to be the manager. So he could not locate a stylus pen for me. I offered to pay for one of the pens that come with a NDS in the display cabinet. He opened the cabinet and just gave it to me. I asked him how much he wanted for it and he said since they are not sold individually he could not put a price on it and I could just have it. Not my intention, but sure is cool.

Amazon has a good one

I bought one from Amazon for like $13. It's a hard shell with fabric interior (has a mesh pocket too). It's a zipper case with a strap and a clip. I got this for my 650.

Otterbox

I used an Otterbox 2000. It's a bit big and needs a little extra padding to keep it from moving around. I had a spare, so I used it but that thing can take a beating.
