    I installed a trolleze tray in my sx180. Its not a difficult job as long as you have the tools needed. Just make sure everything is laid out just where you want it before putting a hole in the floor. Would suggest using a reciprocating saw for the job, and have some spare blades.

    I recently installed a Pro-Control in my 04 SX190. I would definitely do it yourself. Once you get over the anxiety of cutting a big hole in your deck everything should go smooth. This is a pretty easy job. I cut a 1" round hole in the deck so I could look in with a light and make sure that I wasn't going to cut through any wires. I did have to cut through a 2X4 brace. I used a box cutter to remove the carpet and then sawzall to cut the composite deck. One the hole was cut out I used epoxy resin to waterproof everything especially where the styro foam was exposed on the edges of the hole. Just make sure you use the template that comes with whatever brand tray you buy and measure at least twice before cutting. Your boat is only about a foot shorter than mine so you shouldn't have any issues.
