I removed the head from the trolling motor shaft and disconnected the wires...slid the shaft out of the bracket...mounted my transducer to the motor at bottom of shaft...then used clear silicone caulking to glue the transducer wire down in the groove in the shaft....then slid the shaft back in the bracket and connected TM wires and put the head back on...put a zip tie around the wire and shaft top and bottom. It sounds tricky and difficult but its really not.
