Title: Ordered an Atlas jack plate
Post by: 18x2 on June 13, 2012, 10:20:35 PM
Decided to make the investment and get a hydraulic jack plate.   Decided to try the atlas plate and will post pics when I get it on.   Now I need to decide where to put the gauge...

Actually Im getting it with the 6 bolt pattern and they are OK with this choice.  Any opinion on where I should put the gauge?  I was thinking of putting it next to the SmartCraft Gauge on the bottom left.

Next to Merc monitor LCD gauge display.  Very little real estate with all you have on your console.   Look cool just the same.

If it is the same size as that accessory 2nd round touch pad you could put it there and move the touch pad down. Just tinking you may want the gauge more visible while driving at high speeds.
