Garmin GPSMAP Adapter Plate, For GPSMAP x2/x2 Plus to x3 Series

Overview

The Garmin Adapter Plate f/GPSMAP 7x2 to 7x3 Series is an adapter bezel kit that lets you flush-mount a GPSMAP x3 chartplotter into an existing dash cutout from a GPSMAP x2 or x2 Plus.

It is meant for helm upgrades where you want the new display to sit cleanly in the same opening, without cutting a larger hole or rebuilding the panel. This adapter plate family is offered in size-matched versions for 7 in, 9 in, and 12 in GPSMAP installs.

Key features

• Reuses an existing GPSMAP x2 or x2 Plus dash cutout for a flush-mount upgrade to the GPSMAP x3 generation.
• Size-specific options for 7 in, 9 in, and 12 in displays so the adapter matches the dash opening and bezel footprint.
• Supports common GPSMAP x3 chartplotter families including 723 and 743, 923 and 943, and 1223 and 1243 (model match varies by size).
• Creates a finished bezel line around the existing cutout so the new unit sits neatly at the helm.

Variants

This adapter plate is offered in multiple configurations to match different GPSMAP screen sizes.

The change between variants is the display size and the specific older cutout it adapts from. Each version is intended for a same-size upgrade path from GPSMAP x2 or x2 Plus to the corresponding GPSMAP x3 family.

• 010-12993-00: Size 7 in. Used to install GPSMAP 723, 723xsv, 743, and 743xsv in an existing GPSMAP 722 or 742 dash cutout.
• 010-12993-01: Size 9 in. Used to install GPSMAP 923, 923xsv, 943, and 943xsv in an existing GPSMAP 922 or 942 cutout, including Plus models.
• 010-12993-02: Size 12 in. Used to install GPSMAP 1223, 1223xsv, 1243, and 1243xsv in an existing GPSMAP 7412 or 7612 cutout, and it also matches GPSMAP 1222 or 1242 Touch or Plus openings.

Compatibility and fit

This is a dash adapter for flush-mount installations, not a bail mount or bracket. Match the adapter size to the chartplotter size you are installing and to the older unit that left the cutout behind, since the plate is meant to bridge between specific generations and bezel footprints.

If your boat has a custom electronics panel or the opening was modified during a prior refit, measure the existing cutout and confirm the original model before ordering. That quick check saves a lot of time once the old display is out and the dash is open.

Installation and setup

Plan the job like a normal MFD swap: remove the existing chartplotter, clean the dash surface, and dry-fit the adapter plate so it sits flat with no rocking. After the fit is confirmed, mount the new GPSMAP x3 chartplotter following its flush-mount instructions and seal any fasteners as needed for a helm environment.

Use cases on board

This adapter plate is a good match for boats with a flush-mounted GPSMAP at the helm where the goal is a clean upgrade with less panel work. It is commonly used on center consoles, cruisers, and sailboats when moving from an x2 or x2 Plus generation display to the newer x3 family in the same screen size.
