    Lowrance x-47 to gps?

    I have an in-dash lowrance x-47 on my SL190. Is there a gps capable unit that will fit in the same hole. Several units look similar. Was hoping someone had switched theirs out already and could post the information.

    Thanks.

    I just plugged off the hole where my X-47 was and mounted a Eagle Fish Elite 480 to the right of the console on a RAM mount. I think there is a cheap Eagle Cuda unit that will fit that hole, but its just a basic GPS with no map features.

    Lowrance M68C/Map with internal gps antenna should fit and also uses the same plugs and wires for power and sonar so you wouldn't have to change transducer or rerun wires. The M68 is the same width & height on the face, but it is thicker due to the internal memory and antenna. The only drawback is you do not get contour lines on the lakes and there is no chip slot.

    On my previous boat, I switched my x47 to the M68C/Map so I'd have at least waypoints and trails.
