97 Sea-Doo Speedster Aftermarket Gauges

[N8Dawg]

Hi everyone, Any good places to find aftermarket fuel gauge, speedometer and tachs for a 97 Sea-Doo speedster? Thanks in advance.

I have a couple original used ones. Not sure if aftermarket gauges would be calibrated correctly.

Seadoo stuff is not like other boat stuff, the tachs can be replaced fairly easily but the speedo has a completely different design from what I have seen, i think it's electromechanical. You can use PWC gauges but they won't light up. Hence the reason an old used sun baked tach for one of our boats is $80-100 online. FYI the 96 and down gauges are not the same and while they can be made to function, the back light will not work quite the same, and I don't know if 94-95 even had backlights.

Whatever you do don't try to take them apart thinking you can fix them. The case plastic is too brittle and will not make it. Some of my gauges actually were starting to crack around the rim where they touch the hood and were allowing a lot of water in. Nothing some marine goop can't fix.

What gauges do you have? I’m assuming they work.

The stock speedo is never accurate anyway. Does anyone know if there is a GPS speedo that will fit the hole?

I just had my speedo out and measured it and now I forgot what it was. But something like this is what I'm talking about.

Let me know what you do. My paddle wheel is broken and my gauge has a crack in it. I've been wanting to replace it with something GPS-enabled.
