I will be mounting a GPS Chartplotter in the location of the current dash mounted compass in a 1989 Cig Bullet. The GPS surface mount kit requires a dash cut out of 5.76” wide by 4.46” tall, with at least 2” depth. If the hole is bigger than this, fill will be required. Does anyone know the existing factory cutout whole size behind the compass? Any mounting advice will be appreciated (best location to mount ant., mounting tricks, etc..)

Do a bullet search here. A few have done this and it came out really looking nice.

I will try to post some pics later tonight of my install and antenna mount.

Here is a link from when I did mine. Look at the bottom of page 1 for the info and pictures.

It appears I will also need to fabricate a mounting plate for the GPS unit. Do you recall the size of the mounting plate you used? Thank You

I have no idea. But....I made 2 of them in case I messed one of them up. Send a PM to Gripit, I mailed him the extra one. He can measure it for you!!

Carter,

The mounting plate looked like a rectangle with about an inch in width around the perimiter. I would measure it for you but boat is in storage for winter.

Evan

I am also very interested in your pics.

When you pull it out of storage, please send me the details too!

Thanks!

If you guys just want to know the dimensions of the lexan mounting plate, say the word and I'll go over and see my old Bullet this weekend and measure it. The guy lives less than a mile from my house. Let me know...
