Maybe some very minor 'shaving' but no cutting, please!

The circular plastic cut out for the gauges- you may find it easier to install your rings if you gently shave some of that black plastic, so as to widen the opening a little for the rings to fit. I had to do that on the larger holes for the tach and speedo. Try to snap them on first, if you have trouble, get a box cutter/exacto knife and just shave a tiny bit of plastic off the inside of the gauge opening. You need to press kinda hard to make sure they snap in and slide all the way down into the holes.

Good luck!

JV
