Edd, Panels and instruments are not universal. For example, Yanmar does not have glow plugs and the tach works off the flywheel, not the alternator. You could make a panel out of Starboard that holds the instruments and switches you have, but to duplicate a Yanmar panel would be a major PIA. I suspect the same would be true of the Universal panel. Joel
