wyrman thanks for the repost.
mnperrys - that steering wheel is a good fit. I will say the 14 3/4 is larger diameter than the stock - so you might find some play in your steering, but nothing noticeable. I popped this into the hub (fit perfectly) http://ebay.to/1X1qJvL .

Good question - modifying the existing enclosure was the idea I started with, but it was designed for an earlier generation of roof mount 10" TVs and would of required a tremendous amount of accurate wood and vinyl work. Additionally, the TV would have to sit recessed into the enclosure...
Honestly, Home Depot, sorry i cannot find the link.
I converted both the head and galley sinks fittings to standard home plumbing sizes so that I'd have more flexibility in faucet options and can swap them out later easily.
It is slightly longer than I'd like, reaching the far edge of the...
Thanks for the kind words. I really enjoy fiddling with the boat despite knowing I'll never see a return on these "upgrades" - it makes me happy to do.
I just posted a fairly detailed and photo-rich thread about the upgrades/changes I've made to my 260 SDA including the steering wheel, interior TV, and the entire stereo board.
Its over on the install section...
So this was my second season with my 2007 260 SDA and I decided to do a few upgrades this year.
Last year I added a custom teak step and grate from http://goodalemarine.com/steps/ he does incredible work.
Step:
Grate:
Together this was about $550, but very well made and adds a great...
On my '07 260 it's a KEC MOBILE APPLICATIONS RC6790B TV. Consult your parts manual - you can find the manual on sea ray site if you've lost it.
I actually was able to buy a replacement for my tv on eBay - worked great. You may have trouble getting a universal remote with KEC codes.
Thanks for this explanation - I totally understand. Was just pointing out how it was doubly unintuitive and how it should at least be documented in the manual.
Regardless they aren't working now - tabs work - but just flashing red on both sides and yes I have ran the reset instructions several...
Just had my stock trim tab switches replaced on my 2007 260DA with the Bennett EIC Display (EIC001). Turns out its not so easy on a Sea Ray. Mechanic had to have Bennett fabricate a special harness or relay - delaying the install, but hey - at least Bennett is accommodating.
With a 260DA you...
I'm using the Grillamount from grillamount.com on my '07 260 with my Newport Magma grill. I can't say enough good things about it. I hook it over the hand rail of the back compartment so it sits over the swim deck. One piece stays mounted to the grill the other folds up and i store it in the...
