Just putting out one other suggestion to the mix.
I just added a photo to my personal page (at the bottom) to show my 1987 dash. I kept the vinyl backing and just replaced the plates. Buying the OEM ones from a dealer saves the hassle of fabrication and painting.
As for gauges, I kept the classic OEM Yamaha tach with the oil level lights and added a Yamaha trim gauge. For speed, I used a handheld GPS. I added a on-off-auto bilge switch and a Blue Seas 3 gang contura style switch panel with fuses.
I would recommend a water pressure gauge if I still owned the boat.
