What Replaced Your Stock Gauges?

[Tango]

That is after you disconnected them and went to digital? What did you find that will fit in the original holes? And look like they belong there. Also, how are they disconnected? :dontknow: Tom :trike:

....I bought the Basic 2014 RT and it didn/t come with any side guages, just plugs / caps.......I put in two 12 volt accessory plugs using two metal caps from correct size jars I had , they look quite nice IMHO because they have a raised surround that looks OEM of sorts......one is for my GPS power the other has a CIgar lighter in it ........Mikeguyver :thumbup:

I put a clock and a voltmeter in mine. There many others available.

Where did you get the clock

 

[Cruzr Joe]

I put a Dual USB on the left side and a clock on the right side. Clock is a stick on from www.clocks4bikes.com

How are they disconnected? Unscrew the bolts on the gauge cover. Unplug and tape the ends of the connecting wires to the gauges. Replace the gauge cover. Your digitals will come on automatic.

Installed Autometer full sweep volt meter on the left and full sweep oil pressure in the right. Used the cobalt series gauges and they look factory.

Where did you get the blank or did you just stick the clock over the gauge?

I put a Dual USB on one side and a switched and fused 12v on the other side.

Here is the Dual USB instructions

The oil pressure and voltmeter gauges are Auto Meter and I bought them on line from Summitt Racing Products. I like these because the white lettering on black background matches the factory gauge panel almost exactly.Any standard size gauge in the 2-1/16" family will fit. I assume you mean connected rather than disconnected.

The voltmeter goes across the positive/negative wires formerly powering the fuel gauge but for more accuracy some folks go back to the battery and run a separate line.

Oil pressure is much more complicated with a sending unit that has to go into the engine and an adapter is necessary to refit the factory warning light and run a high pressure oil line to the gauge. There are several posts on this as well as some installation instructions. Just search under 'oil pressure gauge' for lots more information.

It looks that way Bob. Waiting for Ron to confirm the appt.. I'm an hour and forty five away. Looking to get there by 9am. :thumbup: Tom :trike:

 

[Bob Denman]

Stay in touch about it; I'll try to shake loose for Saturday morning! :2thumbs:

I bought a dash power from jthorton. It has 2 USB power plugs for one and I haven't decided on the other yet.

Did you use any additional wiring or did it connect up with wiring used for the gauge. Thanks

I know the OP got the answer earlier, but went with ProSport clock and voltmeter too... fwiw.

GPS

I used a suction cup Ram Mount and installed my GPS in the left hand hole. One of the other members of this site gave me the idea. It doesn't have to be a GPS - it can be anything that you can use a Ram Mount for. I like this location as I don't have to look so far down to see the GPS.

It is very easy. You just push out the pin to separate it into two pieces, put them together again with the suction cup behind the hole, then reinsert the pin. You now have a sturdy Ram Mount holder.
