stosiak Posted December 2, 2020 Report Share Posted December 2, 2020 So getting ready to order a 2300HPS and see there are 2 different consoles in the pictures of various years. I like that they moved the steering more to the port but then they put the switches up top and take up screen size real estate. The screens are getting bigger and wondering if the steering wheel move is more important than screen size real estate? Also anyone use the bass seat option and can tell me what base is used or what company has them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlenart Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 I have the console with the switches lower and steering centered. I would definitely opt for the steering on the port side and switches taking up screen space. It's not super comfortable to have two people using the leaning post while someone is driving and the switches on the switchboard down low go bad frequently. The circle switches should hold up better. In your second picture they have what looks like a 12". I can't imagine being really upset about not fitting a bigger one.

slyshon Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 Both of those pictures are dated, the top one is from years ago. The 2nd picture is more realistic, we do not use those same switches any longer and the switch panel has recently become narrower to fit larger electronics.

stosiak Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 Do you have any pictures of the new switch panel thanks Skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin-addict Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 Even if the photos are dated. The second layout is much better all around. Know there were several issues with the flat mounted switches. Steering on the side, more user friendly. Love to see the new layout update.

BradM Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 They changed to the console ‘most like’ the second pic. on the 2018 and forward 23 HPS. Cup holders, port side wheel, etc. I don’t think my tab switch’s are up there though.... more above the key switch. The older console was a deal breaker for me for 6 years. Sad but true! Here’s a picture of my 2018, I just found. I know it’s not the slim and sleek panel, but it’s probably a pretty close to what they have now. I think the new switch plates are aluminum and may not be backlit, Skip can confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
