Best way is to buy one from someone on here who’s sold a bunch of stuff. I got an IR mini orig for 150$ if you want it. I’ve sold a bunch of stuff on here lol. Actually, Garmin customer service is pretty easy. You just call them up and let them know you bought it.
But seriously I have one the original used it today. I have the mini two. I’ve been waiting to activate because I’m lazy it’s sitting in a box. If you bought it from me, I would go activate my mini 2. lol
