GlobalMap 5150c when mounted on gimbal bracket.

After drilling the hole, pass the antenna connector up through the hole
from under the dash. Pass the power cable's bare-wire end down

though the hole from the top.
If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good marine

caulking compound. Some marine dealers stock cable hole covers to con-

ceal the opening. No matter what type of installation you prefer, be sure

to leave enough slack in the cables to allow tilting or swiveling the

GlobalMap 5150c. If you choose to fill in the hole, be sure to position the

cables against the rear edge of the hole as you apply the fill material.
Before positioning the bracket, be sure to hold the cables against the

rear edge of the hole. Then, slide the bracket over the hole and butt the

rear of the bracket base firmly against the cables, thus pinning them in

place against the side of the hole. Finally, fasten the bracket to the

dash. Attach the unit to the gimbal bracket using the supplied gimbal

knobs and washers.
In-Dash Installation
You can mount the Globalmap 5150c in the dash with an optional FM-5

In-Dash Adapter Kit. The kit includes mounting hardware, a template

for cutting the hole and an instruction sheet, part 988-0147-43.
