Nice work!

Nice pics!

Did you have to put some sort of washer or bushing around it? I haven't been able to find one that actually fits in the gauge holes on my '15 RTS. I'm about to create a pair of washers, as my USB jacks are a lot smaller than the holes in the dash.

FYI if you do not want to destroy a gauge you can get 2" blanks pretty cheap. All kinds of styles and colors.

Example Ebay search:

I used this one as it mounts the same way the BRP gauge does.
