Afternoon all - I have a 2016 gas Yamaha golf cart - looking to upgrade some features. Any recommendations as to who might be able to install a gas gauge, speedometer and new headlights

There are a few ways to install the gas gauge, the traditional float on a arm, or a float on a vertical rod. Both typically require cutting a hole in the top of the tank to mount the sender. I managed to mount mine in the filler hole, so you remove it every time you fill the tank. The good side is this is completely reversible as I have the original tank gauge, the bad side it never reads full correctly, but does read empty correctly. A GPS based speedometer can be purchased with speed, odometer and trip functions, needs NO calibration, some have the GPS antenna built in, mine has a separate antenna that I mounter near the dash. The headlights MAY need new wiring depending on what your cart currently has installed, especially if the new light have high and low beam capability. In any case I would be careful of using the MAIN keyed power circuit as I have seen a few carts with blown main fuses due to too much added load, and other with a damaged wiring harness due to using a larger fuse. Our cart is a 2017, and very similar to yours, so if you would like to see mine send a PM.
