I didn't replace/delete my stock Yamaha round gauges but did add a Garmin Echomap (Ultra 106sv) for charting, sonar and bottom imaging. I later added an N2K input from the engine to emulate all of that data. Below is a picture.
It's pretty rudimentary and not as slick as the Yamaha CL7 display.
Since you have the GPSMAP you can actually get the CL7 look with a J1939 cable that plugs into your Yamaha hub. Should be plug and play, check out this link.

If it wasn't for the internet, Youtube and boating forums we'd all need master's degrees!
