Re: 2006 Q6 Smart Tab Install Photos ???

Tahoe jag, I just installed the sx 60# tabs on my 06 Q6. I will install photos soon. If you search for smart tabs installs, you find etransfer and hashi. Both of these guys have done the install on Q6`s and have photos as well as install info which is very helpful. I`d be glad to help you out with install info if you need it. The tabs seem to blend in well and don`t look near as bad as I thought they would. Hope this all helps.

Re: 2006 Q6 Smart Tab Install Photos ???

Hey tahoejag, I just installed the sx 60# tabs on my 06 Q6 today. I`ll post photos as soon as possible. If you search some previous threads of smart tabs installs you can find some good pix from etransfer and hashi. They both have q6`s and have posted good photos as well as install info. They were pretty easy to install and I will be happy to offer any info I can. I haven`t had a chance to put the boat in the lake. I will next tuesday. I installed mine like hashi did. I mounted the lower actuator fitting on the outbord side of the holes at the plate, where as etransfer cut all but #1 setting on the tab plate. I also called john at nauticus to order the new fitting that mounts on the outboard side of plate holes like hashi did. Hope this helps. Oh yea, they don`t look as bad as I thought they would. They blend right in, and in the water you`ll never see them from behind.
