WTB - Mounting Bracket for Lowrance Link-8 or Simrad RS35 Radio

Postby OldKenT » Fri Jul 26, 2019 5:58 pm

If you have a Lowrance Link-8 or a Simrad RS35 VHF radio and are not using the mounting bracket, I would like to buy the bracket from you. These two radios have the same dimensions, and it appears that the mounting brackets will fit either. You can reach me via my listed email. Thanks--Ken

Have you tried Simrad to find a bracket? Sorry to say I threw one away a few weeks ago after flush mounting our new RS35.

Yes, Butch, I did. Simrad has replaced the RS35 with the RS40 and has no mounting brackets remaining in stock for the older radio. I had the radio flush mounted originally, but after using if for a year decided to mount it differently. The installer gave me all parts except the mounting bracket, and has no brackets in stock, so unless I can find one I will need to make one or have one made. I have made a prototype, but the one supplied with the radio would be better. I am hoping someone has one that is not needed.
Thanks for the reply.
