Given that the Nav 6 cradle is used on multiple models I thought that your post in Gear was perfectly fine and if anything should have been closed it should have been this thread (not saying that I agree with the decision).
But FWIW here is a thread that goes on at great length on the issue.

Good luck.
I’m guessing that this is a “spare” post as I see it in Wetheads as well.
I will close this and delete it in a few days.
If I guessed wrong, let me know through the Private Message system.
Good luck.

anyone used this mount and where did you get it, for how much ?

I'm using 3D AM adapter with Garmin XT and I like it
I bought it from the link below :
https://www.adapter3dmotorrad.com/en/product/e-navxt/
And they ship very fast
Quick question ... if I want to use the XT on both my '16 RT and '18 GS would the same adapter work? Or do I need a separate adapter for each?
The gs adaptor has 2 options, lockable or orientable. Obviously both options won't work with the RT.
The adaptors look the same but they are mounted 180°.

I just got mine this past November. It works fine so far. A friend of mine had a connection issue with his adaptor. They replaced it no charge.
Ps you will need an extra Garmin zumo xt mount bracket.

I would say yes for sure.Quick question ... if I want to use the XT on both my '16 RT and '18 GS would the same adapter work? Or do I need a separate adapter for each?

The orientation only relates to a GS install with a new mount. Or you may be able to spin the OEM mount but I had no reason to want my GPS in the Vertical position.
So if you buy one adapter in the Horizontal (OEM) position you can pop the XT and the adapter off your RT and walk right over to your GS and pop it in and go.
So yes one adapter can be shared across a GS/GSA and a RT, and I would assume any NAV Prep bike would work also.

I think LFarling is correct; however, only one set of parts is provided to modify the BMW cradle to be able to lock the XT to the bike. If you're really curious, you could try and reach out to 3DAM and see if it truly would work and if they could include a second set of parts to modify the cradle for locking.
Isn't the "bike cradle modification" only necessary on the GS that actually locks? I did not think any bike cradle modification was required on the RT. Heck I would be fine with buying a 2nd cradle to get the parts so long as once done I can just pop the XT on and off both bikes just as I do my Nav6
