Now the funny thing is, the painter could not remember which panel was on the right or left.... so he made them match either way. Butt them up on either side and they are an EXACT match!!

I had found a REAL DEAL on some Eickert 4-n-1 gauges and it really cleaned up the panel.
Here is a close up of the gauges.

And as with anything new, how do you label it?? I did not like the idea of stick-on plastic labels, so I had the panel Laser Etched ($70.00)... a bargain. Here it is:

I also needed some rocker switches for the Tabs & Drives. I did not like the idea of having to make rectangular holes exactly the right size for the Carling switches, so.... I found this from Eddie Marine for $80.00 !! It made it so simple.... cut a square hole, drill & tap for four machine screws & DONE!!

WOW!! Looks Great.

I love those guages....dont have to look to far to see whats going on!!

Last winter I had found a "close out" deal on the GPS unit I installed here. $100.00 each, so I bought two (one for the Formula 312). I liked the way the Formula worked out with it mounted in the dash, so I did it with the Sonic also... did not like it on top of the dash.

Here is my wiring harness... all custom made, by me.

Each switch has a seperate power lead to come from a designated Circuit Breaker for each device operated. And of course, I had to make it easy to remove if needed, so....

Heavy wiring is not needed as anything with a heavy load uses relays for power. The switches only operate the relays. Now, this is a lot of wiring, so of course I had to label everthing on both ends.

Now I have to start thinking about "fixing" that black Kiekauffer indicator label.....????
