Guage and seat belt colors

Wanted to everyones opinion on this...

For an all black interior, should I get










I want to also match it with my seat belts and possibly the clock. Unfortunately, they don't have white seat belts so I'm thinking of going all red. Any opinions for an all black interior and exterior?

I'm doing red belts on my black interior. I prefer the black gauges, but if I was going with a different color red would be it.

Paxton is infamous around these parts
I vote for red as well but wished Porsche offered needles in a different color (red on red is kinda hard to see), maybe white or even black.

That would be my only hesitation to ordering red gauges.

I just ordered red interior and white gauges. With a black interior red would be really cool, just wonder if they would be hard to read. However I don't Porsche would put them as an option if they were too hard to read so I vote RED!

Wow. Love that red stitching on the seats.

I guess I wouldn't care too much about the red needle on red background because you have the speed reading anyways right below it.

Plus, red will match the calipers. Well, unless I get ceramics, then I would like to see the yellow gauges and seat belts.

Decisions decisions. It's such a challenge making final choices! Good luck! I think that interior looked fantastic.

I like the red seatbelts + stitching, I suggest to test drive a car with red / yellow dials first, If you still like them after a few miles, then go for it.
FYI, the "dark red" colored dials dont match the "guards red" seatbelts and brake calipers. Very different shades of red.
