cafe man 03-18-2010 01:40 PM

hi guys, i am in the same crazy situation. want to install a gps-plotter on my cafe. but don`t no what the best place in the dash-area. now my idea: (sorry can`t post pics) -in that housing wher is situated the depht finder (drop out and reinstall on other place) i will install a garmin GPSMAP 620.
a relative small plotter but with great ability and nice price. and on this place you have a good few on it . better than on top of the cabin door. and you don`t have to destroy the dashpanel.

This application works well on my Cafe. We used Stainless Marine indicators ...

That is a real nice looking dash with a custom install.

Mr.P i though about that. I wouldnt spend the cash for the heads up though. I would take the indicators move them to the switchs for the drives/tabs. Move the drive/tabs to under the shifter. Im still toying with ideas and my plotter is pretty big

Thanks

How do you remove the panel where these GPS units are mounted? I have a small outdated GPS mounted there and would need to cut a larger opening. I read all about the christmas tree clips/etc. But how big of a project is it to rermove this panel?
