How to Flush Mount a Garmin GPSMAP Chartplotter: Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Flush mounting your MFD gives a clean, OEM look at the helm and keeps spray off the connectors. Garmin includes a cutout template with every GPSMAP unit — use it.

Before You Cut

Verify helm panel thickness, check clearance behind the panel for cables and depth, and confirm you have 12V and NMEA 2000 routing planned before cutting fiberglass or aluminum.
