Prior to revealing them, several answers need to be provided.
What are you removing, exactly: Is it:
- a 2" round depth gauge in a panel?

- the transducer on the stern and the wire running through the rigging tunnel to the dash gauge?
What are you replacing the depth sounder with? What are the included components?
What is the year and model of your boat?
Who is doing the work?
Do they have basic do-it-yourself skills?
Do you (or they) have access to local marine supply stores?
