Default need ideas!!!

Im making some changes on my dash and one of the first things is to move my depth gauge up on the dash.

The issue is that the depth guage is now down to the right in front of the throttles, you need to totaly take your eyes off the water to see it.

So when I move it Im going to have a hole where it was. I dont really want to jack around with taking the boat to a fiberglass guy and have him fill the hole unless I have no other option.

So my question to you guys is what can I put in that hole???
I thought maybe lighter? I think Im also going to put a clock on the other side of the gauges so cant put it there. Who makes some kind of cool billet gizmo that would just pop in??


thanks a ton

I put a clock and a outside air/water temp guage in a couple unused holes.

What about a fume detector for the engine compartment?
They are pretty cool to have.

I dont think so........ The depth gauge is in front of the sticks and behind the tab/trin buttons now.
