Default GPS mounting options

Attempting to mount a Garmin 4208 GPS unit (moderately large) in a 290 Enticer. Considering using the lower "glove box" on port side and building up fiberglass to flush mount.

Any other suggested solutions. Pictures would be appreciated.

The panel on the 290 is kind of tight but i think if you move some gauges around you should be able to mount a GPS in there.

I was able to move some gauges around in my 300 and install a GPS.

I dont think you will be happy at all having it on the port side. For sure try to make room at the helm.

I think if you took and moved the two trim gauges in front of your shifter that should open up the panel and give you room for a gps
