Well the 430/530 are extremely popular. It is hard for me to imagine why
a 430/530 owner would choose a portable GPS model that will not interface
with the 430/530. The parts/labor to interface the 430/530 to the 396
cost perhaps 2% of the total cost of the 430/530 installation. I am not
saying all 430/530 owners need a 396 but it is inconceivable to me for
someone to install such an IFR GPS and then not be willing to pay $400 for
a used 195 and $150 to an avionics shop to interface the two. That is a
bargain if ever I saw one in aviation.

I have never heard of interfacing a 195 to a 530. What information is
shared?
