Join the list! If you do a search on here, you’ll see we just had a thread about this. The gauges are presently unobtainium.

Mooney has a whiteboard which we saw back on the tour during MooneyMax 2024 where they have parts that need to be ordered, the number backordered and the minimum order before they place it.

The advice is to go through a Mooney Service Center. Have them backorder a couple of them for you. Sadly with some MSCs you have to convince them to place the backorder. Mooney has said that once they reach a certain level on backorder that exceeds their minimum order with the manufacturer, they will place the order. Quite a few people that have needed these in the past few years just demand them now and complain about the company, never place the backorder and won't listen to reason. I haven't needed many things in the last few years, but every time I have followed the advice they have come through for me.

@dkkim73 and @NickG were also looking for the wing fuel gauges/dials last month.  You all might want to check with @JustusSJ -- he's parting out an Ovation in Europe (I think) and said he still has the wing fuel gauges; not sure of the exact part number he has but they might work.

Finally!!! Thanks @JustusSJ - the unobtanium has been obtained! These are going on this week.

BTW - I will be removing my broken gauges and having them repaired. Will put them up here when they're done...... we need to keep these things in circulation.
