    I don't see why not, you don't have the gateway box or any of the digital stuff to worry about like the 2000+ boats. You may need to swap the pitot tube for the speedo but might be able to re-use what you have. You might want to look for one that has a speedo that is more suited to a tow boat though. Look how small the 0-20 range is, and the 45-60 range is pretty useless but it takes up half the gauge. I am pretty sure you have PP so you might not mind that part but it would bother me to have such a tiny part of the gauge relegated to wake surf/wakeboard speeds. Also I don't think you have much use for that trim gague haha. Now that I look again I see that it doesn't come with any senders so if they aren't compatible with your old senders you might need to chase down more parts. Also your hour meter would be reset to zero, although you could hook it to a batery to bring it up to where you currently are if you want. I think I'd look for another set. If you might be able to find the originals on E Bay or CCF if you want to keep it original and just replace the ones that are bad.

      I just came across these and kind of liked the look. As far as the speedo you can opt in for a 0-35mph version rather than the 65 mph version. With the hour meter i would relocate the stock one to the engine compartment and set the digital one to my current hours.

      I would replace the trim up/down gauge with an analog clock. I just didnt know if it would be all plug and play or if imwould need some new senders and such.

      U dont think they look cool!??

        They are nice gauges but I personally like the originals better. Mine are still in great shape so I have never thought about swapping them. If I did I'd probably go with the white Faria Chesapeake ones but the silvers do looks sharp. http://www.overtons.com/modperl/prod...ge-Set&i=76667

        Sorry I am not sure if they would be a quick swap or not but I would imagine they would be.
