Question Speedo Relocation

I found the Auto Meter (think thats right) shock mount brackett. It says its for the 5 inch tachs ans such. Is that the right one?? Do you have to cut the dummy lights OFF the factory speedo? Any special details on how to make it go smoothly??

Search for the username mreed and check out his little idea to clean up the front of the bike. This is the cheapest way to do it other than purchasing Fishboy's clamp. Although his is very nice also.
