I was thinking we could drill out the dash and recess it in.

Turbo & Alain

You are right Turbo based on the measurements from dakota and the recess in the dash, it should fit almost flush with the recess of the dash.. Look at the the last pics of my bike, it should give you and idea.. All I need is some money for a tach and two solid days, neighbor has lathe and milling machine in garage, just found that out last week...

Joe What- Did you ever install the Dakota gauge? If so, how did it turn out and could you post a pic of the finished product. Thanks
