Raymarine Adapter Plate, C90W/E90W to Axiom Pro 9/Axiom 2 Pro 9

Overview

The Raymarine A80530 is an adapter plate for fitting a Raymarine Axiom Pro 9 or Axiom 2 Pro 9 multifunction display where a legacy Raymarine C90W or E90W display was previously installed. It gives the new 9-inch display a clean installation path at the helm without turning a display upgrade into a larger dash rebuild.

This plate uses the existing fixing-hole layout from the older C90W and E90W installation, which helps reduce drilling, cutting, and cosmetic rework on fiberglass, acrylic, or finished helm panels. The black powder-coated finish matches the look of the Axiom Pro display family, so the finished installation looks intentional rather than patched.

Key features

• Fits Raymarine Axiom Pro 9 and Axiom 2 Pro 9 multifunction displays when replacing a legacy C90W or E90W display.
• Uses the existing fixing holes from the older display installation to simplify the retrofit.
• Black powder-coated finish helps the plate visually match the Axiom Pro 9 display at the helm.
• Helps cover the old mounting footprint for a cleaner dash appearance after an electronics upgrade.
• Works as a practical mounting accessory for refits where the boat already has a C90W or E90W cutout and fastener pattern.

Installation and fit

This adapter plate is most useful during a marine electronics refit, especially when the boat owner wants to move from an older wide-format Raymarine display to a current 9-inch Axiom Pro or Axiom 2 Pro unit. It is intended for fixed helm installations, not for RAM-style ball mounts or portable mounting.

Before installation, the existing dash opening, fixing holes, and panel condition should be checked against the new display and the adapter plate. On older boats, sealant residue, enlarged fastener holes, or sun-faded gelcoat around the original display can affect the final appearance, so a careful dry fit is worth doing before the new display is fastened in place.

Use cases on board

This plate is a good match for cruisers, fishing boats, and sailboats where the existing Raymarine C90W or E90W display location still works well for navigation and system control. It keeps the upgrade focused on the electronics rather than forcing a full helm panel redesign.

For owners updating chartplotter, radar, sonar, or networked display capability, this adapter helps preserve the original helm layout while giving the new Axiom display a more finished look.
