Location: Tonka, MN | 250? What part is that? Unless you want to link all your graphs, you should only need a US2 to connect to your Lowarance. Most likely will need a new receptacle (gunnel plug-in) if it is wired that way. Could consider a quick release mounting bracket, battery cases, etc? It all depends on your boat and how its set up.

Location: Lake St Clair | I dont have a
" NOTE: The connection of the Xi5 and the Lowrance HDS Gen2, HDS Gen2 Touch, HDS Gen3 or Elite-7Ti unit requires a NMEA 2000 network and the MotorGuide Gateway Kit . If a NMEA 2000 network has not been established, a starter kit, Lowrance® NEMA 2000® Networking System or MotorGuide® Pinpoint GPS NMEA2000 Starter Kit will be required to complete the setup. "
so this wont be needed |

Location: Lake St Clair | One more question
Is there a wiring kit I'm supposed to buy with a fuse vs just buying some short wires and connecting them? |
