re-wire furuno 10 pin transducer to 8 pin Fuji female plug

Hi

Can anybody help me with a problem. I'm going to purchase a furuno 525 transducer that only comes with a 10 pin plug. Now I have a fcv 582 unit that requires a 8 pin female Fuji plug.

I don't want to purchase a conversion lead as the prices I've been quoted are laughable. (I live on a pension)

Can anyone tell me if they have had the same problem and how they solve it. I'ld like to have a 8 pin plug fitted if it can be.

Thanks for any help offered in advance

Havent changed a furuno 10 to 8 before but have changed a navman 6 to a furuno 10. Most transducers are generic and will work with all sonar units you just have to find the wiring diagram.Do a google search and if its a airmar have a dlook on their site they have all the wiring diagrams. Then all you need is a soldering iron and shrink tube, piece of cake.
