Anybody what the original center cap looks like and where I could get one?

I can't quite make out what kind of graphic is on your center cap?

I believe it says Dorian or something like that. Boat is at the shop so won't be able to look for few more days. I will let you know.

Here's a pic of my 1999 21v Riders Edition wheel. It says Tigé in the center.

Anyone know where I can get a replacement center cap? I don't even really care if it says Tige, I just want a finished look.

mdk681, Thanks for the photo! Your photo actually answers another question I had. I was wondering if anyone had put a radio on that dash panel. That wasn't stock was it? I could eliminate my remote and move my depth finder up in place of the clock. It kinda looks like that's exactly what you did. Now I'd just have to install my ballast switches somewhere else cause I'd planned on putting them right between the depth finder and stereo remote.

I'm missing the same center cap, I contacted Tige and received the following:
Based on parts history, it appears that Northern Lights Marine Product was
the supplier of the steering wheel for the boat mentioned. You should be
able to contact them direct 954-975-7223 to see if they can still supply you
with the center cap and let them know the steering wheel item number was
MS505342DRT.

Thank you,

Looks like a pretty standard Grant Steering wheel. I bet you could go directly to them and get it cheaper than going to Tige, or their supplier.

Thanks, One of these looks like it'd work.

chopper515 - I am the second owner of the boat and I believe it was there from the factory. I did not change anything, and there is really nowhere else that it could have ever been. The only thing I did was replace the stereo unit a couple seasons ago so I could have Bluetooth. Love having the stereo right there.

As far as ballast switches I put them on the wall that the throttle is mounted on, right under the deck. They are out of the way, and it's also really easy to cut the wall. Easy to wire behind that wall as well. Just a suggestion:

mdk681, Thanks for that photo. I was thinking about putting my switches on that side panel but was apprehensive about cutting through the vinyl. It does look temping for sure due to the easy access to the wiring. What did you cut it with? I have a multi tool that should work perfect.

[mdk681]

I stuck a bunch of blue painters tape on the area where I wanted the switches. I then traced the outline of the switch where I wanted to cut out. I cut through the tape/vinyl with a sharp box cutter. After removing that layer the 1/4" thick plastic panel material was exposed, I cut through that with a Dremel tool router bit. Fairly simple and painless procedure.

[chopper515]

mdk681, Thanks! So the vinyl/foam wasn't too thick to snap the switch panel in?

[mdk681]

Mine seems to hold just fine. I personally would check the thickness of your panel to make sure as I can't speak for your boat.
