That makes sense, they probably wrapped around the holes then. Unfortunately I don't have that luxury.

Ok, yea i was looking at there or behind the controls right above the seat arm in that spot. I wanted livorsi controls, I thought and thought about it and finally decided that money would serve better use in another place and to redo my current ones. I didn't pick up ones for the front up high, just got 6X9's to replace the ones in the boxes under the dash. I have the ability to add another pair of speakers, and if I do more then likely it will be 6.5's upfront like yours

Yes, this is actually the pic in the add the guy posted that I purchased it from. I got carried away, and did alot of stuff that honestly could have been left alone. But gotta make it yours and nicer I guess lol. I replaced the system cause it had some mismatching stuff, and had a 4 8" sub set up, and I went to a 2 10" set up with bigger mid/highs in the back and added 6.5's up high in the gunnels. Also got better more efficient running amps to push the system. The whole carpet scenario is only brought on cause I have to find a solution to re cover the back seat, and the more I look at it I am back and forth. Am more leaning towards just re doing all the carpet to freshen it up, and bring more focus to the blue's in the boat. Right now its alot of blue
Should of went with 4 10's lol They fit fine! :lolhit:

Its hydro dipped, and I had it done by a local graphic vinyl/hydro dipping business called Hi-Def Customs. It was $150 to have the dash, switch panel, fuse panel, drive trim panel, and trim tab panel done. It has automotive grade clear over top, so it is durable and can be cleaned. Then I picked up all new labeled switch covers from New Wire Marine so all of my switches were labeled on the cover since the hydro dip would cover them on the panels.

The system that was in the boat when I purchased it, the amps are mounted right on the other side of the dash in the cuddy on the bulkhead wall. I am going to put the new ones in the same spot.

You just dipped the factory piece? How'd you fill the holes so you could drill new ones for the 2 extra gauges?

I made a new dash panel at work, I made it all by hand. Here is a photo of the old dash and the new .
