Just an FYI, I recently installed the GoWesty dash circuit board and lights. It was straight forward, but I suggest looking at both the online video and the print directions as there were things covered in one not covered in the other, and vice versa. I would have liked GW to offer options for the dash light color (the white is pretty bright for my taste), and getting the tubing that prevents light from bleeding through to stay in place was one of the more frustrating steps. But, it went well and works as advertised. Dave B.
