I just replaced my dash panel as a result of an electronics upgrade project. I have for sale, very cheap, a 2004 420 Dash Panel, burl wood finish, and as a bonus, I have the Tri-Data and RNav 300 GPS. Both are functional. The GPS would have problems getting a "fix" sometimes, but I am under the impression that it was an antenna battery problem.

I also have the starboard "dash panel" which is where the fire suppression system gauge is located.

All panels are in excellent condition.

Do you have any pics of what you did with the new panels?
 
Looks really nice. How's it been with the two tachs that far apart? I'd have to get used to that since I look at them so often.

Well, since my defined layup lasts until April 1, 2020, I can't say. However, I think I will adapt. I'm more worried about moving my Depth Indication from the Tri-Data, to a spot on the new MFD.

Looks awesome! Those Garmin's are slick. Very nice.

Question - do you not have an engine sync gauge?
 
Wow great job!
 
I can’t find the factory gauges for my 290Amberjack that are priced right. Any suggestions?

Look on the starboard side of the helm. I moved the Sync Gauge over to join the Fire Suppression System. Old dash panel shows empty hole for Sync Gauge on centerline between Tachs. The new install shows how I made room for the Garmin.

That’s where my sync is from the factory, my boat originally came with the Sea Ray Navigator... piece of crap!

What do you have for sale as far as electronics go?

I still have the original GPS...it is a RayNav GPS 300. In my opinion, it still works. My problems was that the antenna had a battery that died, and I couldn't get a fix on the GPS. I changed all of my stuff out.

Make me an offer. I'll add shipping which I'm guessing is about $15....

Did you use Rvinyl? Still looking for a good burl match to the originals without going laser etched.
Did you use a heat gun, or just stick it on?
