    Bow shroud extra screws

    Has anyone added any extra screw to there dash panels? I installed a 12inch graph and it loosens the screws every trip out. I plan on adding some starboard behind the screws but I haven’t figured out how yet because where the screws were installed are in bends in the fiberglass.

    Try putting a little thread lock on the screws.

    use 1/4: starboard for the curves, heat it up a little it will bend

    I guess I worded that wrong I should’ve said bow panel instead of dash panel. Mine is a 09 model and I believe is molded different in the front than newer ones. You can barely get your hand in there I’ll take some pictures. Do you guys just go with the 4 screws that were there originally or do you add any extras? I made a a spacer and installed my 12 on the bow panel for the time being so it’s not the sturdiest. I plan on installing a precision sonar stack mount soon. What size coarse thread screw are you guys using?
