I thought it was only in Florida that they drive slowly in the left lane. Do like the idea of the RPG though.:gaah::banghead:

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Disabled the analogue gauges & want to replace with other gauges instead - Suggestions please?

Ok giving this a pre xmas bump for additional help. I've decided that I want to put a USB/volt meter combo where the analog fuel gauge is and a clock where the temp gauge is. For those that have done it, any suggestions or how did you do it? I can find 1 inch USB/Volt combos that are meant for cigarette lighters which would mean I need to by a hole cover for the 2 inch hole where the gauge went then bore it out and put the 1 inch USB/volt combo in it?
I am learning late in life what many of you grew up learning to do so any help or product suggestions are appreciated.

I painted Deanna777's dash surround and that's what you will also need to remove …. 4 screws to detach it ….. However BRP gives the least amount of extra wire they can ….. so if you angle needle nose ( they work best here ) or any needle nose pliers, removing the connections will be much easier ….. then add the gauges of your choice , on my 14 RT I made my own spacer surrounds to fit the 12v plugs I added …… good luck ….

I'd think the RPG might work better on the later models. I expect it would be easier to get the electronic sights set up as an app on the dashboard rather than the pain of trying to set up a HUD system on a movable windscreen.
IMHO, Rocket Launchers shouldn't be front mounted - I think the push back from an decent sized missile weapon would kill MPG, and if not mounted dead center (or - god forbid on a swivel mount for side to side aiming) might cause the front to swerve and set off Nanny. For my money, I think I'd go with - at best - a micro missile launcher with a "ripple fire" option.

Besides that, the back blast would set your legs on fire.
I believe I'm going to swap out my gages for 12v receptacles (cigarette lighter type) one on each side. Then I can insert and easily remove anything I wish. Clock, single/double USB, volt meter, light, radar, washer/dryer, furnace and whatever else I need. Seriously though I prefer versatility wherever I can find it. That's why I'd go with the 12v receptacles.
I’m having trouble finding 52mm gauges

Thanks Gwolf, I actually saw these and like them but 62 bucks for a clock seemed like more than I thought I’d have to pay but maybe this is just the simplest way to go.
My understanding is yes, either should work.

Yeah, they supposed to fit the same hole. If they don't the word is Dremel.

This is what I did about 7 years ago, added volt meter and oil pressure gauge.
The volt meter still works, the oil pressure must have a loose fitting cuz it only occasionally works.
Did like the clarity and digital info that was displayed. Would do it again.

The clock in my truck is real small and the display is in the radio screen with a lot of other numbers. I got one of the stick on battery power clocks about 2 inch by 3 inch and stuck it to the dash. It is not water proof so that wouldn't work on a motorcycle, but I did see some clocks with a clamp for handlebars on the back when I was looking and they were water proof.
