    best gauges for 250 XB Pro...

    I have a 2002 Merc 250 XB Pro and my tach is starting to wander and not give accurate info.

    What should I replace it with?

    Should I also replace the others instruments to match?

    I understand the Smart gauges won't work with the XB motors..is this true?

    The MAJORITY of the XB engines are NOT Smartcraft Compatible.

    If you provide your serial number, we'll be glad to verify this for you.

    Hmmmnnnn.... Livorsi instruments would look pretty sharp in your dash! (see above).

    NOT Smartcraft Compatible.

    The Livorsi analogs will work fine, however.
