What are some of the options for mounting a graph at the console? I'd prefer to mount my HDS12 in the dash, but my 2012 Z520 doesn't have a big enough spot. I've been looking at some of the brackets that mount to the dash, but they're pricey, and don't leave much room between the graph and your fingers on the steering wheel.
I'm afraid if I put up a ram-mount, it'll look weird with a big empty space in the dash. And it's been nice not having a ram-mount on this boat.

If you want to keep it in the console, use Precision Sonar or bass boat technology. Preference will be based on how you think each looks. Check the photo sections, they're very informative.

+1 on Precision Sonar, I used their mount on z8 console with a touch 12. I recommend.

I'm in the market for single style mount for a HDS 12 for a z521 myself. I can't bring myself to drill holes in the fiberglass to mount a ram mount style.

I recently put two 12"HDS in my 2013 Z522 using the precision sonar mounts. They were a perfect fit and look great. I would post a pic or two but I'm challenged on how to post pics.

I have the bigger ram mount for an 1199. Looked at the others and made this choice knowing the mount would stay on the boat forever. You may have more options I was limited somewhat with dash size in an older boat
