I'm looking for a blank bow cover (center) for a 2005 Stratos 294XL. Anybody have one or know where to find one? I've searched everywhere on the internet that i could find. Thanks.

On the center of the bow, there is a blank cover. On the right of it is the cover that has the tilt/trim switch and an accessory switch. On the left of it is the cover with the trolling motor plug. The center cover is cracked. I would like to find a new one and I'm going to put on/off switches for my Hbird and future Livescope and a 12v outlet for charging remotes, etc. I have talked to a guy about making one out of aluminum if i can't find an original. Using a cutting board is a good idea as well. Another option that i can consider. Thanks for the reply.
cutting board is the way to go in my opinion as well. I had the stock cover/holder for my lowrance crack on my 2015. Made a new one out of cutting board and painted it up black. Looks factory. Plus side is its also super easy to work with
Look up ashmore marine products on facebook, he made me all new bow covers.
Search for HDPE sheet material online. I have made all sorts of covers out of this. Very easy to work with if you have basic hand tools.
I made mine out of stainless and wrapped it with vinyl. Plastic would be easier since you want to add switches. I just used mine for a cover since my graphs are now mounted on the deck.
I made mine out of plexiglass. Primed the Plastic and then painted.
