I have fitted engine nmea to my zuke but with garmin plotters but perhaps similar.

Do you have nmea already or do you need to know what to buy etc?

Also, need to know how old the engine and plotters are and what nmea version is supported.

You don't need a dealer no but you probably will have issues with fuel consumption unless you get the correct version of firmware installed on the suzuki nmea cable. Note that doesn't mean use latest firmware. It doesn't work as simple as that in my experience as I had to send mine away to be changed even though it was brand new ordered from zuke.

Hi, Xk59D, think you might have a window to the future! I have now completed this job... all works well but... yup fuel consumption out and sadly the new (Old) firmware cannot be installed by my Raymarine Chartplotter, nothing is easy! Where did you sent it off to to get this done?
