We bought the plane with inop GPS and and no ADS-B out. Also the 14v electric attitude indicator seems to be an issue, it needs to be re-caged intermittently.
I'm writing for advice about what avionics to install to fix these problems.
We are considering a Garmin GNX 375 GPS/ADS-B in/out to replace the GPS and add ADS-B. Are there other systems that you would recommend?
As for the attitude indicator, we are having trouble finding a good lead on an attitude indicator for a reasonable price. Something like a Garmin GI 275 or Garmin G5 seems like an option if we want to go the new route, but this plus the above GPS/ADS is quickly getting toward a significant dollar amount relative to the value of the plane.
Thanks for any and all advice, please be gentle

I had one and ended up going with the existing transponder and adding the GDL-82 for ADSB out.. I also put in the Aspen pro for glass.. It was a nice little setup.. I just saw and Aspen pro on Facebook for $4500
