Lowrance HDI
 
I have yet to try these out, doing a fair amount of installs.

This is the Elite 5 83/200 transducer, the Elite 5 HDI 50/200 will not fit in the Lowrance Ready compartment without some modification. I have yet to get the Elite 4 HDI. Supposed to get them next week.

My elite 4hdi should be here 1mar do you think the 83/200 455/800
will work w/ lowrance scupper mount? I'm putting it in a cuda 14

I heard that it takes some finessing

Jeff, I did a scupper mount on my demo Cuda 14 and it did take a little modifying, to get it tight under there and not protruding.

Geez, I may have to go big, these are sweet.

I was going to go big but my budget just can't allow it right now.

I installed my Elite 5 HDI without issue in my 2013 PA12. Worked out great without any mods...

Love those cable clams... are those Hobie?

Iceman 02-24-2014 10:39 AM

yes, Hobie Thru Hull wiring kit, comes with 2 and a nice variety of wire fittings

Iceman 02-24-2014 10:54 AM

The transducer in my original post is the 83/200 and is the middle one pictured here. I like adding the second wire seal for this, I figured a way to do it with just one, but this made more sense.

The new 50/200 for the Elite 5 HDI is the transducer on the far right. :eek:
