A little rust never hurt anyone. I consider it weight reduction.

Re: Guage unit removal

Definitely check the FAQ's before you do anything if you are unsure. I know it has helped me. I have said it plenty of times that this forum is the best I have ever been a part of. Lots of knowledge and experience on here.
