Default Drive/tab indicators

Hey guys I am updating the dash on my 37 AT and looking to replace the mechanical indicators with electronic. Got a quote from Livorsi for everything including some pricey signal converters that will be needed unless I can install electronic senders in place of mechanical on drives and tabs but not sure where to get the senders. Drives are XRs with the HP hinge pins so I don't think standard merc drive indicators can bolt there also not sure about tabs. Anyone use the CP performance kits? Looks like they come with everything needed but wondering if anyone has any feedback good or bad. Thanks

The gimbles are the same aren't they? I've replaced and adjusted a bunch of Bravo senders. I'd hate to rid of the mechanical. Did you consider the flush mount livorsi mechanical gauge. They have them for all four in one gauge. Probably not the answer your looking for.

I was thinking I read you had the pole type for some reason.

I'll look at the Livorsi flush mount , not stuck on going to electronic because my mechanical ones have been issue free just want to update and the gauge I have is beat.

That's a weak link going to electronic senders. I've never had any luck with accuracy.

You should be able to replace the lense, indicator card and paint the bezel.

Ok cool good to know. I am going to pull the dash apart this weekend so I'll look to see who makes the panel for replacement parts.
