Order the flush mounts from New Caslte HD and save about $40.

Does anyone know if you can not have the fuel gauge on the left cap light up? I really just want flush mount and already have the HD speedo/tach combo with the built in fuel gauge. I would love to not have one on the tank too as it detracts from the look. I looked at a few aftermarket parts from others but think the HD ones look the best overall.

Nope, I already asked this question....althought I havent tried it yet. Someone I trust on here said that the only way to not get it to light up is the unplug it and then thr gas gauge on the speedo wont work.

I guess you could always unplug it and just use the odometer as your gauge though.

Yeah, I saw the connection thing posted earlier I was just hoping there was a way to control or turn on/off the LED. It doesn't really match my bike style but I love the look of the flush mount.

I think it really cleans up the tank with the lo pro and flush mounts.

Default answer to gauges working together

If anyone is wondering if the hd flush mt gauge and the hd speedo/tach fuel gauge work both together the answer is yes...readings arent exact but very very close, my tach/speedo fuel gauge always seems to read a little higher than the tank gauge. Love them both!
