Anyone have any pics of gps units mounted to the dash of a old school 35 (92)? I want to buy a better gps and would like a permenant mount that doesnt look cheesy. I dont want to rely on follow the leader when we go to Lake Erie. Does Fountain make a pod or something to mount one in? I know they sell guage pods. Any suggestions? Thanks

I installed my up under the faring as far forward as it could right in the center fits perfect and looks great no pod needed
it was not that difficult but you do have to remove part of the cabin headliner and drill a hole in the top of the bulkhead to run the wire

Here is a pic of my new dash with a flush mounted Garmin 740s. My boat is a 1991 32', but it is the same dash as your 35'.
I do not have the new wheel on yet, it will look much better when the old wheel is gone.

Thanks. I purchase almost everything from Innotech because they made the carbon fiber dash. They got it from Livorsi. I do not know if they have blue. You can have my old ones and try to paint or powder coat?

I have all lowrance on everything except for this new dash. It is a galmin 740s which was 749.00 without a transducer. Transducer was79.00. I like it but I like the lowrance maps better, (I am probably the minority on that). The new garmin is apparently way better.
