New gauge is not going to have the warning light. If one of urs goes out you will be forced to get a new style and they will not match. Todd said they do not carry anymore old style gauges.

When you said it was a 1/3 of the cost I was shocked. That was not the case. Only $20 more for new gauge and I can sell my old ones for $20 each so I should pay the same that you did for all new gauges.

If a gauge goes out, as long as livorsi is still operating, I should be able to have it repaired. When I said 1/3 the cost, I was referring to my original plan to buy a new panel, new throttles, gauges , switches ect.

Don't forget about Great Lake Skippers for dash parts. I've bought stuff from them before they have nice products.

Great thread. My panel is out getting redone right now, along with throttles. Talked with livorsi about re-furbing my gauges (sames as yours), and never even thought about going with the silver dials and bezels at the refurbish price! some of my white gauges have lenses that cracked. Looks like i will be sending mine up there! If you dont mind me asking, how long did it take to get them back?

I was told 20 per gauge for the small ones, 38 bucks for the tachs, and about 80 or so for the liquid speedo..

Yours looks great. Nice update.

I sent my panel & gauges all intact & wired up, & got it back that way, It was a extra 100 but well worth it to me, they had my dash for 2 months, I would get your gauges there ASAP, just to be on the safe side

My dash looked identical to yours, same gauges, bezels, and white dash. I disassembled the dash, and sent it to premier powdercoating (team marine) and had it powdercoated in the candy red color, and my throttles also re-powdercoated. He does the engraving too. I was told livorsi used to send the panels to him before they got their own machine.

Plan to send my gauges to livorsi this week and have them re-furbished and change from white to platinum like you did. I really like the gauges with the warning lights, and like the fact they put the red pointers in too!

Not sure who you talked to but as of Friday Todd quoted me:
$35 for small or $50 new
$57 for tach or $200 new
$80 for speedo or $118 new
New gauges have built in LED lights.

Who is the guy at Livorsi that refurbish the panel? Todd told me they do not refurbish panels. He said they tried it one time and will never do it again.
