I just did an RB ashtray pod, with prosport gauges - I put a small piece of aluminum 'L' across the back of all three gauges - holding them tight together made a pretty solid mount.
Then a little black silicone (we call that 'radio glue') around the hole to hold in place.

I just installed all the wiring and gauges.
Only thing is Racing Beat got a bad batch of Oil Temp/Pres Adaptors so I need to wait for one to be shipped.
Here is a pic. Remember the Firs to readings are off.
THanks Jedi for the awesome how to.

Guys I need help. I bought nexus gauges and need some help to wire them correctly.
I need to connect one wire to constant +12v source(musst stay powered during engine startup and while ignition switch is off) and one wire to switched +12v source(must stay powered during engine start and crank but turn off when the ignition switch is off).
Thanks

no problem trustbuddy, let me know if you decide to do the install and I can email the instructions.
on a side note: Racing Beat and Nordskog should pay me for all the business I've sent them.
