I just got off the phone with ed, from www.livorsi.com (http://www.livorsi.com) (gaffrig gauges) tell him broque sent you if you order gauges!

I ordered the white face gaffrigII basspack 7
gauges ,with a speedo 0-80mph a tach 0-8000 rpm, oil pressure,water temp, volts, fuel gauge, and hourmeter.
To top it off I bought sky blue bezels to match my boat!!!

SCOTT p eat your heart out!!!

I saw the orange bezels on your boat and had to get the bezels!!!
they will be here on friday! (2nd day air)
hopefully the weather will change by then and I can show them off on saturday (if weather lets me)

If the weather does clear out and I dont have enough time to wire up all the gauges(I better be able to since I am an audio engineer)
I am going to throw them in the boat anyhow and cruise up to the waters edge!! :p
woohoo!!!
I am sooo siked!!!
ill post pics when they are installed!!

Sky Blue Donzi,
Skuy Blue Donzi,
I received my Graffig bass pack 7. I got the teal bezels. Make sure that you have room between the gauges as the standard flat gauge bezel are 1/4" wider around each gauge. I had to order the flat slim line bezels due to the closeness of each gauge in my panel. Did you also get the sending units?

Ahhhh...but will they Match Perfect? I sanded,masked and sprayed mine the same color as the boat. They are all Basecoat/Clearcoat. Did the same to the motor,brackets,gimbel assy. and Mounts...etc, etc.

Good luck with the new gauges...They are nice.

OK guy's, care to tell someone new to all of this what those new gages cost? Should you now spell your name broke? I would like to replace the gages in mine however, at this point I am still in the doghouse for buying the boat to begin with!

Brad, call the Marine Connection Liquidators in Ft. Pierce, Fl. 1-561-465-6460.

Ronnie is who I have worked with.

They have all types of new gauges and are even Donzi Liquidators. I have purchased a lot of stuff from them to restore my 66 Classic 18.

Good Luck in keeping the costs down.

Alex.

Autometer accu-comps.... (5) 2 1/16, (1) 3 3/8 tach and matching speedo... w/ temp and oil pressure senders.... bout 350.00... call it a momentary lapse of reason, but hey.. makes the dash look nice! PLUS i know accurate engine speed and fuel level now... hmmm anyone have a dash insert like the current 2000 - 2001's out of a new classic that says donzi classic series that they'd like to off?

Hey brad, you may think I am broke becasue I spent $336 for 7 gauges through livorsi marine, but I beleive its an investment. I could have bought a set of teleflez gauges for about $225 but you get what you pay for.
besides the guy ed who wrote up the sale was a very pleasant guy and that sort of sold me. If you give me good service I will keep coming back.
besides I bet the gaffrigs will last a lot longer than teleflex gauge(which use to be in the boat) :P
And they LOOK awesome ill post some pics soon.

I would have thought that the gages would have cost more than that. Sounds like a good investment to me. Do you know if the dash plates and switches reasonable as well?
