Description

The neck section of the tachometer gauge pod became brittle and completely cracked, perhaps due to the sun. Rather than replacing the entire pod assembly, I disassembled the pod until I got to just the housing. I then used a dremel to clean the old neck area and finally sanded it smooth to get ready to accept the printed part. Once printed, I used a few drops of contact cement to hold everything in place. It worked like a charm.
