Our panel openings are a little different than those switch accessories are sized for. I had a dual volt display at one point and had to fabricate an adapter for it to fit…

Well, I ended up trying to 3D print an adapter and it was a failure. I printed out five different prototypes before getting the sizing “right” for the switch and the dash panel opening. The issue for me ended up being that the temp gauge that I had was too close in size to the dash opening so there wasn’t enough 3D print material to create a robust adapter and it ended up splitting in multiple areas. I still don’t have a good solution for this . . .IMG_7305.jpegIMG_7304.jpegIMG_7302.jpegIMG_7303.jpeg
