Default Dash Upgrade Completed

I decided after seeing some of you on OSO and speaking with some others to undertake this ambitious task of replacing all my dash panels with the vibrant carbon fiber red panels.

I started this project in early November as I was closing my boat down for the season. It took me two days to tear everything out with proper labeling and many pictures and notes of what goes where.

I sent my old panels out to Steve @ Innotech for him to cut and match for size as well as drill most of the holes needed and label all to match stock. He did a fantastic job and was a pleasure to work with. He is a true professional, Thank you Steve for all your help.

My 2000 Fastech had the two step raised main panel which was made as a flat panel with the new one. There were six panels in all that were redone.

So after receiving all my new panels from Steve as promised I was stuck staring at them in my office. As most of you in the Northeast know, the weather was bad for a number of weeks. But last Thursday it finally cleared up and gave me the time I needed to complete the installation of all the panels.

I finally completed it last night and all the electrical tested out fine, now I’m waiting to put her in on Friday for a test run to make sure all the (new to me) but slightly used gauges work as expected.

I have a 271 that I want to redo the gauges in, this looks great and only makes me want to do it more now.

Nice Job

He did on mine, and you can change it to whatever you'd like. I know that no one ever reads it, but I changed it a little for the next guy to get a laugh out of...if they ever read it!
