It's encouraging what you can pick up on e-bay after a year constantly searching! I wanted to replace my Instruments and hunted down these ones over the past twelve months. All were "new old stock" and all came from the U.S.A. The speedometer is the original one as I couldn't find a replacement - I did, however, locate a "sunshade" for it which you'll see in the photos. I'm also getting all my upholstery back over the next day or so. It looks purple in the photos, but it's actually deep maroon; honest!

I'm getting my boat back this weekend and I'll start to piece it together next week. Hopefully, it'll all go back as easliy as it came apart!

He is very reliable so you will hear back fairly quickly. Ask him to declare them either as a gift or at a low value on the customs declaration to avoid being clobbered for duty at this end. It won't be such an issue with just this item but I bought decals for 5 engines & really got tucked up when I forgot to ask him this.

That's a fair point; I got nailed with the instrument panel I bought.

Many thanks.

All back together with no parts missing! I'm going to site the ignition switch in the control box this time since the new instrument binnacle has an overheating light where my old binnacle held the ignition switch. Also - it stops the dash getting chipped by swinging keys and the like.

Looking great, enjoy fitting it together with the neutral detent. My favourite pastime.

Not long now........ apparently I get my boat back on Friday. The deck just needs adhering to the hull and the paintwork given a good polish and that's it! The weekend will therefore be spent putting much of the boat back together.

The deck's now stuck down and sealed.
