Okay, first and foremost, thank you Basscat for your help on this so far.I contacted a local Mercury dealer and they have an updated gateway adapter part number that comes with a junction box. I was under the impression after a call to the plant that my 2013 Puma FTD came with this junction box so I looked under the dash where I thought that box would be and I did not see it. The Mercury tech also told me that there should be a data cable for smart craft from the engine to the console that plugs into the junction box. I looked under the cowl and I believe I found where this data cable should be plugged in and it has what appears to be a cap on it. So to save time and possibly more confusion is there someone at the plant that I can call with my serial number and possibly clear some of this confusion up that I have created.Im still under the impression that this is a fairly simple DIY task, I just want to be sure to get everything I need being that these things have to be ordered. too much research possibly…….Thanks again!
