53 custom gauges done

I needed to upgrade my 53 gauges to 12V. I didn't care for the aftermarket billet panels and gauges so I decided to try and mix the aftermarket gauges with the original housing. I really like the result.

I also needed to fill the 3" hole where the f800 air brake pressure gauge was. I used the original gauge face and made it into a clock.

Another step toward completion!
