Steering Column Gauge Cover - Magnet Mod
 
Hi All,

Thought I'd share a small tweak the community might benefit from.
My aftermarket steering column gauge cover came without the tabs to clip into the lower half.
Prior owner super glued that to the lower which I didn't care for.

As a work-around, I super-glued small magnets to the inside to hold the lower to the upper.
Fits snug while still easy to take on and off.
Pretty simple where I just used painters tape to keep the outside aligned while I glued those inside magnets.
Magnets I picked up from Homedepot for maybe $3-5, I forgot, but it was cheap for a pack of 8.

Also be applicable for those with broken tabs on uppers and/or lowers.
