Looks like this...Boat 4-28 009.JPG I don't see anything like it on the Faria website site.

I've spent several hours online but can't locate... The Tach and Fuel Gauge are headed to Faria for repair.

Keep us informed. I looking for some as well. My guess is we'll need some contact from Faria support.

I was just going to recommend Great Lakes Skipper. They have an incredible inventory of open box/surplus/random marine parts and especially gauges.

While it doesn't look like they have your exact bracket sold separately, if worst comes to worst you could always order a filler gauge and use the bracket off of it as that looks to be a match.. http://greatlakesskipper.com/produc...ia-faria-bl9617a-blank-boat-filler-gauge.html

What does Faria say when you contact them directly about it?

I emailed Faria and they responded " give us the part # and we will send you a couple"....my 2" mount is a BC37C.

I emailed them yesterday and they responded today...no problem, they got them...I guess if I can't find it on their site I wrongly figure they don't have it.:facepalm:

Excellent. I just never got around to it. I'll be emailing them soon enough myself.

My guages are from a dash I bought from Greatlakessipper. They look great but the mounts have some issues. Nice to see a manufacter that has your back once in a while.

Got an email from Faria Friday, gauges are repaired and on the way back to me. 1 week in shop & $65. Not bad

Good to hear Faria treated you well.

I had the same experience when my tach went dead. I messed up the bezel ring "trying" to fix it myself before finding out Faria gauges have a lifetime warranty :facepalm: I told them I messed it up and they said to send it in anyway for warranty repair, they sent me back a new tach for something like $30!

I am very pleased with Faria. Communication is great and a decent service for 20 year old gauges. Repaired parts match the others in the panel and are cheaper than new. Hopefully the new mounts are in the box also.

I hope my opinion doesn't change once I install them. :cool:
