Hey you. Can't figure out how to mount your gauge cluster? Want something cheap and easy like your mo... Um. So you have this empty ignition loop? Oh yeah should have mentioned you may want to relocate your ignition.

Take your cluster apart and put a hole in it that's over the center of the ignition switch. Measure a few times


Put a big damn washer under it. I used a Beringer bar end

Bolt it down

And there you go

Make sure the bolt won't touch anything inside the cluster. And seal it from the weather.

id add a few more nuts and washers just to expand the pressure of the bolt on the gauge cluster plastic, and maybe a spacer to go in the ignition hole, to prevent over tightening and cracking the gauge.

So you mean I can't just bolt the gauge into my ignition barrel?
