Loose Guage Cluster

[everyother_time]

My Gauge cluster is loose, after pulling the front off and looking at all the bolts and what not, I find that its just the rubber mounts thats holding it on! does anyone know where I can get some good replacement rubber mounts?

If you can't find more rubber mounts you could always just go to michaels and get a 99cent sheet of that foam rubber they have and cut out little circles, put one on top and one on the bottom and it should fill the gap. Actually home depot just sells little rubber wasters too, even the nylon ones would work.

properly installed the cluster is loose, so it doesnt shake itself to death

Yeah it depends on how loose you're talking about. If it just moves slightly when you move it by hand, then that's normally. If it actually rattles, and has free play up and down then your rubber spacers might be dried out or crushed, if they were over tightened.

XBR or XBS?

XB9R, and my gauge cluster has the bolt stop to prevent over tightening. probably just dried out or crushed mounts. I'm going to go to the hardware store this weekend to see if I can find some spacers
