I concur....the one I bought on e-bay seems to help with the glare as well.

X3... it's a lot cheaper to tear off the $5 eBay cover and toss it away than replace the screen, mine cuts the glare as well.

Priced right on Ebay!  I haven't been using one, but will order right away.  Thanks for the reminder. :2vrolijk_21:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-x-Screen-Protectors-for-Garmin-Zumo-660-Shield-Film-Guard-Cover-/180982208477?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item2a236157dd

This appears to be the best deal going, but does not account for quality.  If anyone knows whether or not these are any good, please chime in.  These ship out of GB, so they will take a little longer for stateside deliveries.  Personally, I'm going to order since they are less than five bucks shipped ($4.89).  I'll let you know if there are any problems with quality.

I have had the Zagg protective film on my 550 for about 5 years.  Good protection for the screen - durable - and, as mentioned before, it cuts the glare.

support that: used chinese protective bought via internet (forgot label and source, just picked the cheapest buy for some cents each time) both on 550 and 660 for 10 years. No complaint  ;)

My 660 is three years old, never had any protective film on it and no problems. Not sure how it would get scratched anyway. My screen looks like new. I do only clean it with damp micro fiber but otherwise nothing special.
