I am in the process of installing a 520c on my boat, and was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the cone shaped mount for the gps puck. I've seen the mount somewhere but can't find it on the lowrance site.

go to three rivers marine website in PA.  I have bought several things from them.  They are great to deal with.

 Thanks I'll give them a try. Next question, Tonight while working on hooking unit up I noticed my accessory switch has 3 open lines for additional accessories. Can I power unit and puck from the same switch?

I do not think you can power the unit from the other one, but I know you can network the two units to use the same puck.  Saves you from having to go to the front of the boat to set a waypoint.  Depending on which T connector you have, all you would need is the 15 ft red cable and the two foot one to go from the t connector to the unit on the front.  Call Justin and he can walk you through it.

Yes, you can power them from the same accessory switch. If you power them through the NMEA network buss (T connector),Lowrance suggest that you install a switch otherwise the NMEA draws power continually. Mine are all routed through the main power switch for my accessory panel.
