    Might want to look at not flush mounting at console... being set back in the dash hard to read with the wheel in the way ..
    sit in the seat at look where it would be mounted and see if you like it flush or not ..


    This how I did mine .. but the wheel is in the tilted up position..plus i also raised the front on up , its easier to see plus the TM cable was always laying on the left side of the screen ..
    lowrance can mount up to 12” not share on HB..

    12”. I have a 15” Solix at the console and 12” on the bow. 12” is the max but I agree with Murph, flush mounting has a bad angle and and it is farther away if you need to make adjustments while running. Putting it on a bracket will bring it forward and you can easily hit it. I made my own panels and was able to mount my bracket directly to the fiberglass in the console with some spacers.

    jkleino gave you the sizes but I will add that unless you are absolutely set on flush mounts, using mounts offers more accessibility for usage, removal and service. I use a dual dash mount on my older TR21X console and a mount over the pedal tray up front.
