    Think it's an M2, which you can buy here;

    but I'd have to go an take it out and measure it to be sure, and it's too late!

    I've been doing lots of google searches to see if there is a confirmation positively identifying the exact screw type used and I can't find a single one.

    Try M2.5 x 10 (maybe 12)

    Great timing guys, just lost the nut on my one a few days back.

    Thanks for the eBay link bernithebiker could come in very handy for smaller allenkey bolts etc .

    i snapped a hex bolt a while back,i contacted Garmin for a replacement.
    They couldnt source a new bolt for what ever reason,so they sent me a complete new out front mount bargain :D

    I think its actually a M3 bolt with 3mm thread diameter and uses a 2.5mm hex key, you can buy the bolt on ebay in 22mm or 25mm lengths, congrats on getting a whole new mount though :D

    I realise that this is an old thread, but having lost the bolt for my Garmin Out Front mount, I ordered the bolt as recommended by Rob21. Cost £1.05. 5 bolts arrived next day, perfect fit :D

    Saved me buying a whole new mount - Many thanks

    Thanks for the timely bump as mine has started to round and I wanted to replace it. Now ordered!

    I've just discovered that lock on bolts from old grips are the right diameter and the same as Garmin mount bolts.

    They are perfect for mounting barfly accessories underneath the mount.

    Sorry to jump onto this threat.

    I am missing the bottom wrist securing bolt from my Garmin 235, the short bolt that attaches to the long one.
    Anyone know where to get this from?
