Default LowRider Dash Trim ?
Hey Guys, I have a 2003 LR and the rubber trim around the speedo and tach is starting to crack. I'm looking for some ideas for an after market solution and maybe something that looks better than stock. Thanks in advance.

Not sure what you are looking for but I am pretty sure the dealer would have it.

The old style 2 piece tank trim and speedo is pretty lame. I just took my chrome ones off and replace them with the stock wrinkle black ones which are now powdercoated gloss black courtesy of Joe. I got replacement gaskets from HD.

You could also switch to a leather tank trim panel.

I use door edge trim (available at most auto parts stores). Easier to work with,
and looks just the same when installed.

Thanks Bones that's exactly what I'm looking for. The Dealer can order the trim but it's over a $1.00 an inch. I guess I'm cheep!

I just picked up the trim at HD 2 weeks ago and it only cost about $12. They also redesigned it since my '00 and it is much improved. Perfect, secure fit. If you want the part # let me know and I will dig it up.

Great job. Really looks good, especially the flush mount gas cap and fuel gauge.
