Pontoon Console ?

#1 Post by ROBBSRACINGENGINES » Tue Mar 12, 2013 4:56 am

I am looking to replace the dated looking console I have on my toon. Since the rebuild it looks out of place to me. All I can find around the net are generic looking ones. I want something like what you would find on one of the new fancy pontoons. Anyone have any ideas?

That's where I bought mine, and it came with top mounted controls, teleflex helm, new ignition switch and switch panel. Looks great!

Why didn't you just tell us what you really had in mind and we wouldn't have wasted our time offering you what most people use.

Those helms are easy to find if you just look around a bit. Problem is, you can't ship them. OK, you can pay an arm + one leg and have it freighted to you, and you get the fiberglass stress cracks and starfish for free :lol3

If there so easy to find how come I cant find them? lol.

For the rite deal I will drive to go pick one up or pay to have it freight shipped. I have shipped race bikes all over tthe country for years. Either way its not that big of a deal to me.

Yeah northern indiana / southern michigan area. I check it all the time just to see the deals on scrath and dent stuff from the oem's. I know you said you don't mind shipping or freight so that's why I mentioned it.
