Hey gang,

I'm looking to upgrade / replace the original Clarion XMD1 stereo in my boat.
I specifically would like to find a unit that has a remote which will fit in the original mounting hole at the helm.
I believe the mounting hole is about 2 inches.
Has anyone done this / what model would work?

Thanks in advance!!

UPDATE:
I just installed this Clarion MW1 remote and a Clarion M303 head unit for Seattleite. It turned out great and the remote does fit on the helm. I had to redrill the main panel though to remove the recessed pocket and allow the 3" dia base to set flush.

Panel partially removed.



I drilled the hole offset with a 3" hole saw to the right of the recessed pocket. This aligned the 3" hole in the panel to the 3" hole already in the helm.

Done
