Hi all,

With the installation of my smartcraft gauges (well, when I can work out where the cables plug in :embarassed ), I'll have 6 small gauge holes where the old gauges will be pulled out.
I plan to put system link gauges in there eventually, but not for 6 months or so.

So, rather than leaving gauges in just to fill holes that don't work are there 'blanks' as such, preferably white, to fill the holes?

You can use electrical weatherproof knockout seals, that would work. When I redid my xtb guages, I just made new plates out of stainless, then put a carbon fiber over them. Looked pretty good, and wasnt too much of a hassle, just used the existing for a template. Good luck.

Do it right and find a scrap of marine plywood, cut some proper size plugs with a hole saw and resin them in. This will restore the strength and you can redrill later if needed.
