T3 Dashboard Options

[texasmoto]

I'm knee-deep in a total restoration and starting to look at the dash. The bike itself is going to be a little more custom: I've had the frame powder coated red, and I plan on swapping the gas tank to the V7 Sport tank.

The gauges I have are original and in pretty good shape. However, I'm trying to simplify and improve upon the plastic dash. MGCycle has this (https://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=276&products_id=2774)

but it only has four lights, whereas the stock one is five. I figure I can lose the "Generator" indicator? I have already ordered the stock wiring harness and that's ready to be installed, so I don't want to go too far from stock, but I think it will be okay to tape off the Generator wires.

Does anyone see any problems with this, or perhaps knows of a better way to implement something like this? What other options might there be? Perhaps drilling a fifth hole in the center of the dash from MGcycle?

Generator indicator lamp supplies current to the rotor to start the magnetic field to produce current. Burn out the bulb and the alternator won't work.

Lo Beam
Alternator
Oil Pressure
Neutral

I'd dump Lo Beam to get back to 4 lamps.

I used that dash plate with Motogadget gauges and cups on my G5 build.  It fits and works well, but I ended up going back to the stock T3 gauges and mounts.  I thought they looked better. The idiot light lenses in the stock top plate are very fiddly.

Here's what it looks like on my T. Never had any problems with it...
