GX Touch 50 display in a CCGX cut-out

This adapter lets a GX Touch 50 go into the cut-out left by a CCGX display, so the older unit can be swapped for the newer touchscreen. Inside are four mounting screws, a metal bracket and a plastic bezel. There are two ways to mount it. Fitting it with the screen in place gives the most secure hold on the display. Leaving the screen out makes the display easier to remove and lets the adapter go in before the wiring is finished.

Our take

The two mounting methods are the useful part of this adapter. Installing with the screen in gives the most secure hold on the GX Touch, while installing without it lets the adapter go in before the wiring is done and the display come out easily.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • 33 CFR 183 subpart I applies to boats that have a gasoline engine, except an outboard, so a gasoline generator counts.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
