A custom fabrication of the same concept as shown by the pics from 1442 would be a viable option. Your "shelf bracket" would require bends and rises of multiple tabs to reach the flat spots where it could be anchored, but once done that way, it would be strong. Notice that his solution gets away from that horizontal moment arm issue when the gimbal is straight behind the display - so that you won't be stressing the attachment points.

I have thought about taking a piece of 1/4" plate and cutting it to contour the console horizontally. From there I'll weld on tabs to bolt to the flat spots. Only issue is my Tachometer will be hidden, which I might switch to the mph side. Keep the ideas rolling.

P.S. It'll be easier for me to fab or have a local shop fab then trying to work with a company.

74 loaded with wells full is fast enough for me.

Andrew, I thought I read on here you had a brand new Cat? Or do you have 2 boats? Just curious, good luck on your graph solution.

I have an 04 cougar also and have a touch 12 mounted to where you have the Bass Cat cover plate on the right side of the console. I took a 7inch unit out of the dash so I had to make an outer plate to cover the hole. I also made an inner plate to bolt the two pieces together. Then I bolted a Ram mount to the outer plate and it holds the touch 12. You could then use another Ram mount on the side to mount your other unit.

With the Ram mount you can position them just how you need them.

That is an option. I thought about putting one there and the 12 on the ram. It'll be close to interfering with gear shift. I'll brain storm some more Monday.
