Bushing around gauges

[Nikkoortiz]

What is a replacement for the bushings around the gauges or where can I get some

[ShowBizWolf]

I bought mine off Motosport.com... I don't know if ya can get them cheaper somewhere else but I was ordering other things from the site too so just got them there.

both of mine are missing... 

I don't wanna pay ten bucks for two rubbery things.. if I find an alternative ill post about it..


I was just putting things away and noticed something that might make a good alternative if you can figure out a way to turn it into a loop. COAX cable! if you can find a way to keep it together. and a little bit of black silicon for making it water-tight, IT actually would look pretty good and its also thick, and weather proof. I'll keep playing with it, to see what I come up with...

picture added, if you can get it to loop perfectly. [I couldn't but maybe someone has an idea]
