Question for Speedhut gauge users

[lance corsi]

I’ve spent about 14 hours so far on my dashboard panel, engine-turned face, etc. I bought the Speedhut revolution gauges and some came with an auxiliary setup button. I have been looking at other dashes and don’t see the auxiliary buttons on the dash face. I’m not wanting to clutter my dash face with the additional buttons. Is there a way to set up the gauges before installation so that the buttons are not necessary? I’d like the dash to look less cluttered. Thanks in advance.

At least for my roadster GPS gauges, I calibrated all the gauges first, then kept the button attached to my speedo to allow me to toggle between functions. The button is installed under the dash and out of sight. I bought an additional cable/button to attach to my clock since it runs fast and frequently needs to be reset and installed it in a separate location

Agreed. The only ones you need permanently are the speedo and clock. I mount the speedo button on the underside flange of the dash directly under the speedo. Makes logical sense, easy to access, and not obvious. I put the clock button in the glovebox. If you don't have a glovebox, it too could go on the underside flange of the dash. I agree, don't put them in the face of the dash. The rest are only needed one time for calibration. No need to mount or make permanent.

Thanks all! Now, does anyone have a source for turn signal/ hi beam led indicators? I found some on CarID but they have chrome bezels and are a bit too large for my taste. Again, TIA!

I've gotten them from Watson's Streetworks. These are the ones I like. https://watsons-streetworks.com/product/small-chrome-low-profile-led-indicators/. They have a couple other sizes.

Speedway has some nice small ones.
