So I'm looking at mounting some electronics on my 12, and I know Natives got a console or dashboard, don't know exactly what it's called for the 12, but I'd love to see some pics of it. Anybody be of help?

The console is strictly for the 14.5. Native indicates the dashboard is for the 14.5 as well but I've been meaning to see if it will work on the 12 - it might be close. As soon as I can, I'll let you know and if so with pics.

The dashboard is a close fit for the 12. I think it can be mounted with rivets but I won't know until I try it. Sorry, ran out of time so no pics yet.

Hope this helps.

If you trim a small amount of the bottom lip of the dashboard you can mount it easily with rivets. The dash wont go completely to the edge of the thwart because the recessed tray corner contours come into contact with the gunnel edge.

I was going to buy the dashboard, but the one for the 14.5 is $90, which is ridiculous for a piece of plastic.

I built one using a piece of wood, a can of spray paint, and a few pieces of metal for under $10. I figure if it breaks, I can build another one.

I can think of much better things to do with $90.
