Default WTB Garmin 498C

'm looking for a new or used Garmin 498C with Internal Ant. I don't need the transducer. Would like to have in hand by August 13th

You may have a hard time finding a remaining new 498C.

How about a new Garmin 440s? There is a $100 rebate on the unit at present and we'd cut you a sweet deal. Email me if you'd like a quote. Details @ Garmin GPSMAP 440s Combo w/o Transducer - Internal Antenna

Thanks, do you know if my current wiring harness will work with the 440? I've tried to get hold of Garmin to ask them this but give up after 45 minutes of waiting.

Thanks, I would also be looking for the 540, the 440 screen is just a little small

My wholesaler just emailed me this:

"According to Garmin’s site, at least looking at the replacements they are different."

Yea, I had a feeling, thanks anyway. If you come across and new or used 498 give me a shout.

Thanks Laszlo

I did end up finding one, works like a charm, much faster redraw than the 178C
