Dash Insert? ANYONE???

I am changing the gauges in my 95 Outlaw over the winter, mainly because the factory speedo is an "odd" size 3 3/4] and I would like to switch to the newer Livorsi or Auto Meter ones that are usually 3 3/8.

So, here's the thing, I have the boat away for the winter, in a shop, under about 1/2 dozen tarps and covers and it would be a GIANT pain in the butt to get to, and to remove the gauges and get the insert out.

Does ANYONE have a templete? or know where I can get a dash insert for the boat? I have checked Ebay/Craiglist for a dash insert, but, so far, no luck

ANY input would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Michael

What about puting a bezel on the speedo? This way you can keep the old dash.

2nd that. Livorsi actually makes a spacer specifically designed for this problem. GPSSBK or GPSSW (black or white)

I had NO idea Livorsi made and adapter, will check that out, THANKS GUYS!, I had planned on using the carbon fiber faced gauges with red rims, would I have to use the black or white rims on all the other gauges to make it "look" right?, either way I will check it out, Thanks again!

Call Livorsi and see if they will powdercoat it a different color.
