I bought one for my old boat and never put it in. It was a twin engine 29 Fever. Its white and brand new, I also have a set of Kiehaufer controls. If your interested, I could save you a lot of money.

Should work I had a friend with a 88 12 meter the dash was the same as my 90 and I updated it with one from a 99 also the same The throttle hole size is different between Merc throttles and Livorsi/Gaffrig but if the dash above comes with Throttles you should be all set you may need to change your Cable ends to accept the Updated throttles also if you update your gauges you will need to update the senders as well. harness is interchangeable

blownincome...I'm updating my '94 27fever dash with Livorsi gauges too. I already bought the gauges, but didn't buy new senders. Do I need new senders too? And if I do...do I have to buy "Livorsi" senders or can I get them from an auto supply? Any help/info is really appreciated.

On a 94 did that have autometer gauges? and yes its best to get Livorsi senders if that's what you have for gauges they may work but the calibration will be off. like said above you are all set with the wiring

The gauges I'm replacing are factory...don't know who made them. What you said makes sense...I'll go ahead and get the Livorsi senders too. Thanks for the info!

There is a brand new white dash panel on ebay for a twin engine fountain in the parts section for $350.
