Default trim indicator faceplates

Anybody know if you can change the faceplate on Kiekafer trim indicators? Thinking about new dash, and would like to change this as well.

Check to see if the merc. unit has the same dimensions. I changed mine from black to white and painted the bezel the color I wanted..

They look easier to work on too!! No more springs and little pieces to loose behind the dash.

Where can you get the little white pegs that slide up and down the slots? Sorry to hijack the thread.

I think I have an extra white faced one around here somewhere. Of course, I can't even find a damn riser I promised someone.

The indicators are near the bottom of the page, you can get the lens only and paint your existing bezel.

The first Indicators were made by Bill Rosenthal at Blue
Water products in Oceanside Calif.
Bill is a old buddy of mine and he makes them for other
people.

Fred...Looks like you need a bottom cable entry Kiekhaefer panel? I think I have what you need. It has a white face & a white bezel though. New, in the box, $225 plus shipping. Let me know. Thanks, Ed
