I have furuno VX2's and I want to replace them with something bigger (hole is already there for the VX2). do you guys know if the Garmin 7416 would fit? Any Garmin 12 inch is too small...

Can the cutouts be reglassed otherwise? how much?

You can get the dimensions for the Garmin units off their website, but I think you'll be disappointed with the results. The older electronics have a much larger footprint than the newer ones. I replaced two older VX1 Furuno units with Garmin 76xx units and the hole cutouts were entirely different.

Anyone know if the 360 or 370 electronics box have different dimensions from the 330 Express? I measured my dash (as best I could) and have created a CAD template for a covering acrylic face plate exactly for the purpose of replacing the previous SIMRAD electronics with a Garmin 7612 system. I haven't had a chance to check the fit on the boat itself yet, but will post the results in a few weeks.

Happy to share the CAD file, but I may need to redo it once I see how it fits up against my measurements.
