TESHERR.. 182C IS A GREAT GPS. THE 382 HAS A LARGER DASH THAN YOUR 353 BUT IT WILL STILL FIT .JUST A LITTLE TIGHTER THAN THE 382 PICTURE.I ORDERED MINE FROM GPSDISCOUNT.COM GREAT PRICES .ALSO I WOULD ORDER THE CHIP FOR YOUR AREA IT HAS A LOT MORE DETAIL.

The digital tachs , or any digital gauge, looks cool.
The only trouble is you can't just glance at them to see what they read. You actually have to stop your eye scan and read them.
I'll stick to analog gauges.

Troutly you would think they would put a 182c as there gps for what formula charges for it . Look at the prices at gpsdiscount.com. Call garmin they can tell in 2 seconds.But i beat it will plug & play.

:fish: ,

The tacks were old ones (gaffrig). They slid right in and wirings the same. They work great,but don't look as cool.

Don't install a GPS speedo.....it's the one thing that will slow your boat down for sure.

"The Good Stuff" thanks for the info on GPSdiscount.com. I ordered my 182C on Monday and Received it on Wednesday. Great prices and great service. I will post pics of my 353 dash with the 182 once I installed it.

Hey thats great . You will really like the 182c .Did you also order the map chip for your area . It just plugs in at the bottom of the gps.Gives you a lot more detail on the lakes.

Yes, I ordered a couple of chips to cover the areas I frequent and plan to visit.

tesheer , John , Troutly or others what have you done with your old gps off your boat . I also have a gibson houseboat i would like to find a used garmin gps for . Thanks

Sorry, I recently gave the original GPS to my brother for his pontooner. What a dull life the GPS will lead :D
