Can anyone please tell me where I might find some old dash parts for an '89 Prostar 190. Could really use a new ignition panel as the screws have blown through the holes and cracked the whole panel. I would love to find replacement speedometers as well. Anyone, anywhere please help me!!

Welcome aboard KittyKat. The plastic for your ignition panel is going to be a hard find. Some suggestions I've seen is people using black lexan or getting plexi glass and then covering it with aftermarket design decals off of eBay (stuff they use on dash boards).
As for your speedometer good luck. Keep your eye on eBay. Also try a couple dealers. Discount Inboard Marine doesn't even carry them anymore. Are you sure it's not repairable? What's the problem?

I love the look of that panel, brieod.
An alternative approach that may be worth a look is someone like:
this (http://www.frontpanelexpress.com/)
A prototype shop that'll professionally cut a panel to your specifications, including engraving whatever you want. I have no idea of pricing on this; but their free design software will generate a quote for you.

the clear covering on the speedometers has cracked. they work fine but they could use a cosmetic makeover.
