n4 nice
the problem is if the stock cluster is not working and one can not fix the problem , moding or replaceing may not work either .
What I mean to say is if the falt is not the display and the wiring to the display . replaceing the display you will have the same problem .

I would replace it with a sheet of aluminium to fill in the hole. All of them are flat so cutting a new panel and mounting it would be easy. The Acewell meter would simply mount to it's surface with the wires passing through a hole behind the meter. Acewell meters use only the fuel gage sensor and perhaps the coolant sensor if liquid cooled. Illumination is contained in the Acewell meter so just hooking that wire up to the tail or head light wire would take care of the panel illumination problem because that problem went away with the old panel. The aluminium panel can be painted to match it's surroundings. There may be a lot of unused area which would allow adding lots of other accessories like a GPS or perhaps a radio. |

Yea that would work, the lighting for the panel just tap into the RUNNING LIGHTS.
