    Gauge Hole Reducer Needed

    I had a 2" gauge in my fairing and now am switching to a 1.5" gauge because I couldn't find what I wanted in 2". This isn't necessarily a permanent change so I don't want to do anything drastic.

    I am looking for an adapter ring to reduce the hole size for the new gauge. I know they exist, I have found them for other gauge sizes just not the size I need. Anyone know where to find one?

      This might work......

      I've used these before on my hot rods in similar circumstances.

          ...a thin stainless steel thrustwasher oughta temporarily do the trick also.
