Default Replacement TXT PDS Battery Meter

I'd like to replace the meter in my '04 TXT PDS cart with something more accurate. Something with a numerical readout would be great. Is there any direct replacement or will i need to move the location and cut a new hole in the dash? I wouldn't mind expanding the current hole to fit a larger one. I am also willing to give up the golf tee storage space to the right of the meter for a seamless install.

What's everyone running?

This is what I currently have.

They sale these: https://www.amazon.com/DIGITEN-4-5-1...+battery+meter

But it would look kind of strange turned on it's side. Maybe someone else knows, but I am unaware of anything digital that will mount in the factory spot.

And then the 3 hole option.
Just to clarify, I will reuse my key and switch, and it comes with a new meter, correct?

Anyone care to guide me through replacing my current battery meter from Scottyb? I thought it would be pretty basic, two wires in the old, two wires in the new. Not so much the case. There are 3 spade connectors on the old and only 2 wires on the new.

Pic for reference. I have an '04 PDS w factory lights.

Are you planning to have the new meter on all of the time, or only with the key? I wired mine to be always on and I like being able to see the soc when just walking by the cart. The draw is minimal.

I was thinking just with the key, since that's how the current one is. I suppose it doesn't really matter since its an LED and like you said, draw is minimal.
