So I have a 930 Tach, and every time you rolled it around it would rattle. I figured that someone dropped a bulb in it, but before I did something with itI needed to find out why it rattled so.

So let the autopsy begin. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

930 Tach - so what makes these so damn expensive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) That little 1 bar boost gauge hosed in the face. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Opens gauge bezels like a can opener.

Just work your way around, at least 3/4 of the way.

All opened up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Flip it over remove three screws and one nut.
