Hi Kevin

You've been busy and it looks like I have another project on my hands, getting the garage looking good.

The dials look excellant, what make are they ? Any problems, are they fitted on top ?

I have heard different reports, and I went cold on the idea but those look perfect.

Thanks.

Thumbs up ... and talking about cool garages ...

For those of you who may not have seen this picture before ... My friend Richard recently moved his cars to a new facility ... his son Brett painted this great P logo on the floor ... pretty nice, eh?

Kevin,
Really looks wonderful!

I also have a follow-up question on the instrument rings. Where did you get them and what did you use as an adhesive?

Looks awesome!

You're missing the 40th Anniversary poster! (I have 3 extra if you want one)

Thanks Guys!!!

Colin Those dials are OEM, the best method of doing this is to find somene that is selling a OEM cluster with OEM gauges. Gary from the Renntech board was selling this Boxster Tip Cluster so I just swapped it out.

Boca996 The rings are factory as well.. The Boxster S cluster comes standard with them. As well as the Cayenne

Msindi got all of the poster from ebay!!

Darren.. yep you have to change out the botttom valance to a TT valance.. Had that piece smoothed out and painted to match

Kirby! I'll take it!! I'll PM you for details..

Hi Kevin

Does changing the cluster retain the same mileage or does it reset back to zero ?

Thanks.

No you have to swap out the brain part of it, its simple to do, just two levers on the back hold the brain in place.
