I just mounted mine today above my Gauges near the windshield support. I will take pictures, tomorrow I need to drill a hole for the power/transducer wire. I'll try to get a picture tomorrow.

I have a cuddy, so I want to be sure that the plotter/sounder would not be hit by some one going up to the bow.  The three pictures show an overall view, the view when seated, and the view when seated with the bolster up.  I can still reach the key and start the exhaust fan.

thank you for taking the time in posting the pictures, seeing now how much space is left on the dash after just one now i need to decide if to sell current fish finder and go for the duel fish finder and plotter combined, im still waiting to get the keys to mine im forgetting what the dash is like again  is there any vast difference in the dash shape and design from the 99 model to the 2005 one?

That was going to be my original mounting place but my GPS is wider I think and I was planning on putting my Trrim Tab buttons there.

I just got my Garmin data card, its great seeing all the water depths and channels and knowing where I am now!

Just remember that electronics near a compass will throw the compass off - of course that may not be of any importance when on a lake -
