I am attempting a control panel swap on my sit down Hydro Thunder. The original was cracked and missing the main center decal. I just got a much nicer one on Ebay.

Manual is no help. I'm trying to get the throttle removed from the plastic dash. Anyone have any experience with this? It is no where near as simple as it should be unless I'm overlooking something obvious. I have removed the Allen set screw.

Thanks for any help, John

Its been bit since I worked on my H2Overdrive, which uses the same style throttel, but i seem to remember the handle coming off in my hands after loosening those three screws on the cap ...and i would think once the handle is seperated from the throttle unit it should just slide outta the dash plastic...im pretty sure...like i said its been a while since ive messed with that setup...

edit.

Just double checked the manual for h2Overdrive and it looks like i was correct. They have a detailed breakdown of the control panel here which is similar to the original...

Just download the H2Overdrive manual. Parts breakdown is pg 33 of the PDF
