    Hello everyone,

    I can't figure out how to remove the gauges on the side panel. I have tried everything possible but the screws on the front of the gauge are too hard to unscrew.

    Please help.

    Hallo vanceibz,

    the black housing for the gauges must be removed complete, at the big nut you can see trough the holes the pin that holds th complete housing you must use a hammer and a pin extractor to hit the pin trough the hole then the pin fall and after that you can remove with your hand the complete gauge holder..

    After removing the gauge holder, now you must unscrew both big nut in order to remove the complete side cover
