These are generally wired with one battery running all accessories and another used only for starting the motor. For you to have lost both at once, on two different sets of batteries, leads me to believe that you have single common denominator that effects both batteries. The only thing I can...

My boat did not have the lighted cupholders but had some of the other RGB lighting options. I wanted to add them and made the cost of parts part of the deal to purchase the boat. It's not an overly difficult install process if you're willing to take it on yourself. The most time consuming...

I'm glad that helped. Your fader situation is a little more confusing. The only reason I can think of that it would behave that way is because the rear RCA outs for your head unit are for rear speakers OR the subwoofer output. It could be that when you fade to the front speakers, it's still...

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like your Hi/Lo level input is set to Hi. Generally, high level input is us used when you are running speaker wire from an already amplified source (the speaker wires from your head unit) to give the amplifier its input signal. Lo level settings are used when...

Weight wise you'll be fine. Make sure to check the truck's payload capacity as that is generally much more of a limiting factor than tow weight ratings. You should be fine there as well. Normally, you want 10-12% of total towed weight as your trailer tongue weight to minimize sway. Most...

I've got 8 factory cupholders and a new in box set of docking lights that . Cupholders were removed to install LED equivalents. The docking lights are new in box and include the wiring harness. They are for the M series and to be clear, it's the set. Just including one picture for reference...

I've been contemplating my hardware choices since putting the boat away last season. I was lucky enough to get all of my LED lighting done and the amp wiring and distribution block done under the helm. While I was looking again, I came across an amp that is either newer or I just missed it...

ITC makes the cupholders that Bennington uses. If it's the LED style your only choice will likely be to get new cupholders through Bennington. When I say LED style, I'm talking about the ones with the clear plastic spacer just under the ring. The only difference is that the LED one has the...

Your panel looks great. You're reinforced my belief that I need to get a 3d printer.

That's a pretty big inference from what was posted here. Having a nice, well built, stereo that is able to play music accurately and without distortion at moderate volumes is a far cry from what you're implying. We have a large group of families who are friends and hang out together in the...

I like it! I thought about that as well, just couldn't get past the thought that it might have water issues. I'm guessing you've had no issues with that. Mine rides fairly low in rear and I'm used to having wakeboats that will take a pretty big roller to the stern if you chop the throttle too...

Amazon special, ABS junction box: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DHKXYNPS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I used these rubber grommets and some RTV sealant to seal up the hole I had to drill in it for the cable: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09XVDTQ8F?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Thought I would pass this along for general knowledge and to see if anyone else has additional information or experience. I started out today with the install of my PMX1-R remote, which went well and I'm pleased with the results (pics attached). Unfortunately, while I was doing this, I...

The back seat on the swingback is heavy and a PITA to have to flip up to get to the switch, so I would have done this whether I could get to it from the ground or not. I do like that remote switch, except for the price. Here are a couple of pics for Pbakk:

I've got a swingback setup. The switch panel is only about 6-10" away from where the aluminum panel wraps around to the back of the seat, so there was no need for longer cables. Besides creating some new cables for the m-ACR, the most challenging part was getting up the courage to cut a hole...
