Has anyone changed out the Jensen remote on the 2010 Challenger 180 to the one with the display?

The factory one is a MWR75 that is 2"

The one with a display if a MWR100 that is 2.75

I hate not being able to see what is playing or mode...frustrating!

I want to remove the one that is 2" and just move the hole a little bigger

Thoughts?

I would think it is doable as long as it says it is compatible with the Jensen head unit.

Check out this post, http://seadoosportbo...-speedster-200/. They upgraded everything, you can see they have a remote with a display now too.

just check out the diameter of the new unit is the same or else it may look odd on the moulded helm. I decided to keep mine, but put a second '75 remote on the swim platform. Very convenient.

Can you send a pic of where you placed the MWR75 on the swim platform? That is what I am goign to do once I get the MWR100 in-place

I will takes some pics of the process in the event somebody want to see them
