Adding ballast helm controls to 02 SANTE?

[WIKD281]

Hello there. I woud like to add the ballast helm controls to my 02 SANTE like the controls offered on the 03 models. Anyone have an idea how much a conversion like this would be? Any problems that you encountered in the conversion?
Thanks for any help.
Harold. :mrgreen:

Contact your dealer to find out how much they would cost, installing them would be no problem at all. The valves have a 3/4" O.D. so you want to make sure the ballast hose will connect to it. I'm not sure but I think the 02's used 1 1/8" fill hoses, you would have to reduce this size down to 3/4"

thanks for the reply! I am awaiting my dealer to give me a price on the parts. I probably could do it myself but I am short on time and would hope that the price is right and I could afford for them to do it.
I will post here when I find out so that planetnautique can have it in the search files.
Thanks!
Harold.

I added the flow-rite valves to my '02 for around $150. Its not a very difficult project. Frost is right. '02s have 1 1/8 hoses that you need to reduce to 3/4 for these valves check out www.flow-rite.com
