Oil, Fuel, and Temperature Gauges

We replaced the stock oil, fuel, and temp gauges with 12V, 120V, and 500A gauges. The gauges were a bit snug, so we had to bore out the holes and the old plastic screw fasteners with an knife. The wiring for the new gauges had to go through the back of the gauge panel. So, we drilled a two inch hole through the back and were careful not to go through any of the delicate wires. The wires will then be go to the Kelly controller, the auxiliary battery, and the inside fuse box. We removed the glass coverings on each of the new gauges because the plastic protective covering would not snap back onto the gauge panel.
