Im going to do my guages like that this weekend I hope. Can you give anymore tricks to what you did? Cut the old mounting bolts off, drill the baseplate through and mount it with new bolts all the way through? I heard someone else mention extra stress on the tach cable, how is yours?

Dan-you pretty much have it. On my 400 the tach cable is fine,no binds or anything. The studs are tough though. A drill press is the way to go. But for the $2.50 it cost for mounting hardware it's a pretty cool mod. later-John
Oh, yea I forgot-it took some creative dremel work to get the top cover over the ignition switch. And expect a few choice cuss words to flip those headlight brackets. With the rubber grommets it is a TIGHT fit,and took awhile to get everything lined up so the tubes will slide up. Ended up putting the rubber washer on top,and that made it a little easier.
