Hey everybody, Hope everyone enjoyed a safe and fun 4th of July on their boat as we did!

I’m purchasing a Hydrophase Ridesteady for my 2018 AR190. I’m reaching out to see if anyone with similar dashboard has any pictures of where they placed the Ridesteady instrument gauge. Did you cut a new space for it or just sacrifice and replace the factory speedometer location (and if so did it require any modification to the factory hole to make it fit)?
Looking forward to having it, as I fall into that group who’s wife and teenager are novice boat drivers and I need that consistency to surf!
Any and all help from our awesome members is greatly appreciated in advance!
