 All of my gauge panels are crumbling from deterioration. I am looking to replace all panels. Any suggestions of where I can purchase either new or used panels. See the attached. Thanks. Easybee!

    New wire marine can make custom dash panels or you can order the raw materials from Amazon or www.tecnographic.com

    You can try Great Lakes Skipper for new old stock dash panels.

    If you're handy, you could make new ones out of Starboard; @LaRea has a few threads that discuss working with Starboard to get a great result.  Other options would be to wrap in vinyl or to follow @Aqua_Aura's advice and have a new panel made.

    Welcome to my world. :) I started this process a few years ago.1st don't try and wrap it.  The wrap wont last.  The sun will bake it and it will also be really tough with all the corners and inside corners.  I ended up making new ones out of a wood grain plastic i found in amazon.  Amazon.com: Boat Blank Dash Panel Material - Woodgrain California Walnut Burl 24" x 48" x 3/16": Everything Else.  I really like this material but you have to be ok with edges that are black.  Now if you have the money call the company and they may be able to make one for you.  You can check out a few threads on here and see what i and others have done.  There are no options out there to just buy new formed dash panels to just pop in.  It is all custom.
