I did discover that the perfect size for my dash is an IPAD size. I plan to get a display that is the roughly the size of an iPad. The actual Ipad will be the 2nd display mounted on a Ram Mount.
The Garmin 741 seems to fit the bill perfect. Price is still over what I have allocated for electronics however.
I just got a price for labor to install the 741 and radar at $833. Is it that difficult to install?
I believe my installer will be charging around $200 to install the radar, screen and transducer. He said it's a pretty easy install. I would say that your price of $833 is pretty steep. Then again, my installer is a professional who takes on side work.
