Electronics Panel, Lights, Stereo
So I spent the majority of last Thursday over hauling the electronics on my new V-20. First up was a new dash panel. I picked up all new gauges, teleflex amega, Voltmeter, Fuel Gauge, and Tach with System Check. Added a new switch panel and flush mounted the GPS. I was pretty happy with the results, all went well minus one routing error on the bottom right.... :(
 Then I added a new Clarion 4 channel amp and 4 Infinity 602M's. WOW!! They sound awesome. I was totally surprised at how loud and clear they can get. (sorry no pics of the amp install, its mounted on the starboard side in the cabin)   Lastly I added four LED strips in the rod boxes for deck lighting. I picked up 9" waterproof strips from superbrightleds.com for only $7 a strip. The pics are blury but you get the idea.  I also added a ACR and changed out the battery switch for one of the blue seas off-on-combine switches. Hopefully that should keep everything juiced up for me. -Svence

Yes on the new boat the GPS and Fish Finder are on the dash!! The box I got cheap and thought I would use it as a catch all, but now like you say it woud be great for the VHF and Music.

Your dash looks great. I'm planning a very similar setup. Does the gps proximity to the compass effect the compass? I was concerned because I was playing around with relocating the vhf near there and the compass would swing around and follow the radio.

I can't really tell...the compass has lost all of its oil so it bobs and weaves way too much. I know it says the right direction (N E S W) when I am sitting still, but not sure how accurate it is. Once I got the GPS I never look at the compass anyway.

I have been thinking about a switch panel like that one. It is a really nice and sleek design. Looks great, keep up the good work.
I am also thinking about the strip led lights, could you post a better picture so I can see how well the light the deck.
