    According to the dealer I bought the boat from they claim 2 1/2. At least there were no 3.0's posted.
    Lab - We have the same boat with the same factory tower...

    I will tell you this... I ordered a 2 1/2" mirror mount and it was too big... Reordered a 2 3/8" and it fit like a glove...

    Ordered a Flag mount in (that came only in size 2 3/8 - 2 1/2) and it needed the plastic inserts to snug it up and make it fit...

    Put up my wetsounds Pro 80's last weekends and used the 2 1/2" inserts (there is no 2 3/8") and they are a teensy bit loose... It's not that they're going anywhere but you can move them with your hand if you try hard enough...

    So I'll leave it up to you as to what the size of your tower is...

      Hell I don't know. Maybe yours shrunk due to Az heat and water.
      All I know for sure is mine is too darn tall....

        The 80's are killers... Definitely better than my 60's... Still don't have both pairs wired up yet... That should be nuts... I need to do a little amp tuning and I should be good to go...

          OK, I'm heading to my dealer's this morning to meet with him and have lunch I will take my calipers with me and measure a tower on a 20V. I dont think they are made of a diff diameter tubing, then the others, just diff foot-print to fit a 96" beam and shorter boat. We shall find out once and for all

              Well I think I have found a light on top of the tow point of a tower. I am going to call them today to see if would work.
              It is only $50

                    I was planning on wiring mine this weekend and re-wiring my speaker wires in the process. I have a problem now where the speaker wires are going up on the driver's side of the tower and their proximity to the other cables going from my dash to the back of the boat are creating some interesting results on my guages (my tach moves to the beat of the music ).

                    Got a link?

                      Ok, so here's what I ended up doing on mine. It's the tower light I got from Monster Tower.




                      I like the light that Samw posted, but I wonder if it would work for me.

                            That looks great. Thanks. W/ my tower that will work ok for me. My rope come off the back of the tower so the light will not be in the way.

                            samw,
                            Let me know what you find out about that light also. I like the look of that one too.

                            thanks

                                I found out that it will work on tower that the tow point bolts to the tower from the top. I have an older metcraft tower and my tow point mounts on a plate and from the bottom. With talking to the sales guy you take the lens off and a bolt runs through it.
                                So I hope it can for someone.

                                It looks like I will get a light like Dogbert.
