Replacing the gauges

Well, I finally had some time on Friday to replace the gauges on the Sea Ray. I purchased a set on Ebay for 200 bucks, and I really like the look. The original oil gauge and tach were defective, so I decided to replace them all. It took me about 3 hours to complete laying on my back, but it is finished. I am very happy with the outcome.

Here is the before shot


Here is a little issue I iran init. The mounting studs on the new gauges are shorter, so I had to trim the mounting bracket.

 This is my view laying on my back.

 And the after shot.


This was the other problem. The Speedo was missing its bulb (thanks ebay) and I went to Autozone and picked up a blue bulb, but it is the wrong color. The seller is shipping me a new bulb, but I think i like the royal blue better. What do you think?
