My guages work fine, but the panel screws that hold it onto the center console are beginning to strip out. I think I'm down to only 4 that hold. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Is there some kind of fastener I can buy to put over the stripped out holes for the screws to go into?

Thanks

Bond-o,

Hope this is not a dumb question, but I've never worked with epoxy. Does the epoxy harden enough to hold or do I need to drill new holes?

Thanks,
Kyle

Ayuh,... Epoxy, 'n glass hardens nearly to Steel consistency...

Head on down to the drydock/ restoration forum...
