Default Garmin Nuvi 750 with Ram Mount question

I purchased a Nuvi 750 at Sam's Club and ordered a Ram Mount
RAM-HOL-GA26U. According to a picture from Ram Mount's website there is some adapter that you plug the power cord into. My mount didn't come with it. If any of you have a 700 series and this ram mount tell me if I'm missing a part.

See attached picture I got off their website.

Default Answer to my question

I found the answer to my question. The guys from Ram-Mount emailed back and said I have to use the adapter that goes with my windshield mount that came with the unit.

I thanked them for the quick reply and making quality products.
I can't count how many of their products I have bought over the years.

I'm doing the same thing. Putting a 750 Nuvi on my Heritage. I bought the ram mount. I took a dovetail scope mount, cut off the dove tail, drilled and tapped for the Ram bolt mount ball. I just could not use a u-bolt on my handlebars. Using the chrome short clamp it puts it just level with the left hand controls.

Just ordered a hard wire 5v block that plugs into the cradle. I'll post some images when I put it all together.

I have same gps and just bought a Road King. Want a mount for gps on bike also. Assuming you used your car power cord what power source did you plug into? Did you need any additional parts.

I have same reservation about mounting ubolts on a nice chrome handeltbar. Did you ever post pictures. Real interested in how it turned out. I have a Road King and the nuvi 750 and want to ability to switch gps between car to bike.

My RAM mount came with plastic sleeves to fit over the bars to stop them from scratching the chrome . U - Bolts fit into the plastic sleeves to protect them
