22 VLX after market heater

[gahvey]

Hi All - looking for some expertise from the crew here.  We are looking for a 22VLX, and I am seeing ones that I like but that don't have a heater installed in it (which in MN is kind of important to keep the season going).  My question is if I add a heater in aftermarket, is it possible to tie it into the maliview system or is the only way to get it into the maliview system is if it comes like that from the factory?  I figure with paying this much for the boat I would at least like it to look as much stock as possible.

depending on the year, yes you should be able to tie in and "label".

Yes, definitely can link into maliview touch screen. This kit would get you going...I would add one more pop out (3 total) for another $100.   The pop outs are great to be able to reach everyone in the boat... Should be under $800 if you do all the work yourself.
