I just purchased 3 Lowrance Elite ( graphs and would like to mount 2 of these at the console. I would like them to sit side by side. What is a good mount system for this application? They will be going on a 2004 185 VS. If anyone has pictures of theirs mounted this way please post pics.
The dual mount systems didn't come out until a few years ago. I'm not sure there is a system for the older helms on these Rangers.
Maybe check with a few of the aftermarket mount companies to see if they have something for you.

Van at Bass Boat Technologies has the best mount, rock solid and easy to install.

I took a TH Marine Dual Kong Dash Mount and modified it for my 2005 520vx. I have (2) HDS 8's on it. I'll try and get some pics later...
Yes I did.
I went with a Dek-it Dual Dash mount for dual Lowrance's.

Here are mine. Sorry for the bad lighting. They are on the TH Marine Dual Kong mount that I modified to fit my 2005 520vx. They have (2) HDS 8's on them.
Bass Boat Technologies is the way to go. Call Van

this is two helix 12s on my old boat with a BBT Mount. It was awesome. It was a 2004 185vs
Cool, thanks. How well could you see over the top of these?
Van at BBT 10 to 1 over any other. I was sponsored by one of the other companies and absolutely couldn’t endorse their product. It vibrated, shook, came loose and just basically sucked all the way around. I talked with Van and got dual mounts for front and rear on my Z520. Solid design, solid mount and an all around good product. The only thing close to a negative I can think of, is if you run Garmin electronics, you have to get pretty creative getting those plugs thru the holes in the mounts, its doable but a pain.
I could see over them with plenty of room. im 6 foot though. also you will see how i moved my guages around. if you order it and ask van for the trx cover plates for triton you can get rid of your bigger guages and plug those holes up with the plates as long as your willing to move one of your big guages down to the right like i did.
