[QUOTE="euroshowoff, post: 395966, member: 13100"] thanks all. I've used toggle bolts on a previous build, over time they came loose so i was hoping to use the OEM hardware that came with the new trolling motor. I can't understand why some tacker's (earlier/later years) have a rectangle access hole cut and I only have a small circular hole cut. How they installed the OEM motorguide TM on there is beyond me. I was thinking of cutting out the circular hole bigger, so that I can attach the current mounting hardware from the bottom and get my hand up under the original for removal and installation of the new. The oem screws holding the current old TM are completely rusted. [/QUOTE]
