[Shotimes] Gauges in EATC spot

[Bill Murray]

Kevin and I debated about how to mount the EATC, after hearing people on
the shoforum just slid it in there.  We thought of using plumber strap,
but after looking at it and a very small amount of trimming, nothing was
needed.  Kevin wrapped a layer or 2 of electrical tape around the EATC,
and trimmed the mounting tabs on it and it slid in.  Its extremely tight
with just the friction fit, and its a pain to actually remove it now
since its so tight.  Also since the EATC is so light, compared to a
radio, it doesn't need any support from the rear and it doesn't flop
either.

Kevin,

That looks nice!  I'm curious, how did you secure the EATC?  I've heard
that's difficult to do.
