dash gauge hole covers
Ok, so I've disconnected my dash gauges (fuel and temp. gauges) and can not for the life of me find a vendor that is carrying the coveres for the holes. Can anyone help me out? Thanks much.

Maybe it's as simple as esthetics, or excessive information or, at the risk of being slammed, perhaps it's a case of "ignorance is bliss." Disclaimer - ignorance being an absence of knowledge as opposed to stupidity or many of the other prejorative terms apparently common these days. Then again, all of these may be way off the mark.

Or because there are digital gauges built into your dash computer that are far more accurate and you want to use the space for other more useful instruments

When you remove the analog gauges, the gas and temp gauge shows up on your led screen digitally.

If you disconnect the two gauges that are mount on either side of the dash, digital ones will show up on either side of center display. The digital ones are more accurate, and for me, easier to see. I will probably put a digital voltmeter on the right side, and a blank off plate or clock on the left side.

If you want more than covers try JT's Spyder store. I installed a USB and 12v sockets in the place of gages bevels, with covers. Store is listed as a Spyderlovers vendor.
That was the first place I looked, I swear I had seen them there before. I couldn't find them listed.

The digital gauge gives you a safe 20 miles per bar, much more convenient than guessing a needle position. For info, you only need to disconnect the left gauge to get the digital ones to pop up.
The analogue gauge connectors carry ignition switched positive and negative cables, very handy for wiring accessories - with or without gauge removal.

Have the dealer order them. They are a replacement part for the earlier base RTs that didn't have gauges. Should be only a couple of bucks each.
