Kamie,
You may consider an analog gauge or two. I went with a trim gauge and the rather expensive water pressure gauge and sender. The water pressure sender is electronic, and plugs right into the EMM on the motor. There's no hose or tube running into the console. I have been pleased with my choice on both of these, since a quick glance tells me if I'm getting cooling water, and I can easily set the trim to ideal setting for given conditions. More $$, but nice additions. If you already have a few 2" holes to fill in the panel (as I did) it's a no brainer.

On color, I suggest the gauges with the tan faces. They are a great match for the desert tan interior, and look really sharp.

Thanks Andy,
I did the Tan gauges before and they did look sharp, but this time it's all digital. I will add the water pressure sender to the list. Looks like I will be doing 2 three inch gauges along with the Navman

Try this link for a show and tell using the Lowrance cables and hookups which may be a bit cheaper for you.

BRP has apparently adopted the LowranceNET wiring for use with their I-Command Digital gauges. This could save some money. If you want the I-Command classic gauges, I think you have to use the rigging as you listed above, which is a bit more expensive.

CONTINUOUSWAVE has a nice collection of information about I-Command devices. Here is a link to an article which serves as an index to all the information:

First, lets clear up any confusion. My plan is to go I-Command Digital.

Seahorse, I looked at that last night but it looks like AquaMarine has added a bunch of info that helps.

Right on Kamie. The smaller gauges are daisy chained off the main gauge, no T-adapter needed.

Thanks Rob,
I think at this point I am going with 2 three inch gauges and that should cover 99% of what I ever need. I am also keeping the Navman for fuel since I will wire that to my GPS and continue to use it to display MPH info.

My only issues now are placement of the gauges which will need to wait until I have both the gauges and the new console and do I continue with plans for the teak box for the console top.
