1/4 Turn Garmin Mount Stand-Off
Does such a thing exist?
What I have in my head is a one-piece deal, like an adapter plate, but it just has Garmin mounts on both sides and a thick middle, so that when you install it between your (my) OutFront mount and your (my) GPS, the head unit sits thickness_of_plate mm higher above the mount.
This would allow you (me) to have the mount close to the (Nitto Technomic Deluxe) stem and not have the back of the Garmin brush the forward end of the stem as you (I) turn it closed.
I tried to make a crappy ASCII art thing, but v-Bulletin strips extra spaces, so it wouldn't line up. You'll have to use your imaginations.
Anyway, this would seem like a really obvious thing for someone to make.
I can't find one.
Help?

I think you are looking for a riser/spacer like this...
K-Edge Garmin Edge 1050 Off-Set Spacer but attaches with the same 1/4 turn mount instead of screws

iirc the OD of the mount is about 1-15/64, which then you could use something similar to this with a little trimming & finishing: https://www.superiorcomponents.com/f...ers/17W12604-B
to go in between the two, & obtain two longer {thinking M3} screws. [ https://www.amazon.com/DYWISHKEY-Scr...0CSFL935M?th=1 ]
