I have a brand new HDS 5 that I was thinking to use for the GPS and run full screen sonar with the 998C SI for side and down scan. may have to disconnect the HDS transducer on the back of the unit to prevent interference to the 998C sonar. Any thoughts?

I had the lowrance hds 8's before I switched to humminbird. In my opinion lowrance has better 2D sonar and mapping options. Humminbird has ease of operation and in my experience,reliability, over lowrance. As far as the side imaging, side scan, down imaging, down scan debate goes neither is superior of the other and I would advise you to try both units and determine what best fits you.

You can mount it direct to the transom. Or Humminbird has optional Thru-Hull Transducer that requires drilling hole thru boat to mount transducer.

We mounted our transducer on the trolling motor. It works fine. We will replace the current Minn Kota Maxxum 101 with the Fortrex 101 once the built in universal transducer can handle side imaging.

A: 
If you mount the SI transducer above the bottom of the hull when the boat is on plane the SI transducer will be out of the water and will not be able to send and receive sonar data. If you have a Fiberglass Boat you can install the XP 9 20 Transducer and AS SI DB Y Cable and get On Plane Speed 2D readings.

A: 
Yes, everything we sell at Bass Pro in regards to Humminbird product is complete. Antenna, power cable, mounting, transducer and so on. Our competitors like to box everything separate in what they say is a chance to "customize" your purchase but its really a way to make more money off the sale, we don't do that at Bass Pro. The 998c SI runs the HD-SI transducer similar to the 898c SI and 1197c SI, the 798c SI runs the "compact" SI transducer. Hope this helped you out and come see us at Bass Pro Shops Orlando.
