The dash was like swiss cheese so I made up a cover plate with cutouts and holes for my trim gauge, Gigtech steering, ignition switch and tether. At the back I made all new trim brackets and put one of my set-backs on it. You'll notice the hole for the trim ram is not centered to the rest of the bracketry. The holes that were drilled for the motor long before I got it were out of center and on an angle. I just compensated for it on my setbacks to get the motor centered nicely. I didn't feel like putting more holes in my transom. On my trim ram brackets which also work as inner transom plates, I added a set of tapped holes and made up "L" shape brackets for bolting on my trim ram and battery box for my Odyssey battery. If anyone is interested in these, I can make more of them. Fairly lightweight and very strong. Can make it all even lighter but it gets a lot pricier. Works great if you're like me and hate putting anymore holes in the floor and transom than you have to. Keeps the weight fairly low and to the back. I wish I had all new stainless bolts for the pictures but it's together with what I had. Have to change them later.
