Default gauge rings...

I can't seem to find replacement black VDO gauge rings anywhere. Can someone tell me where to look? Thanks!

Consider contacting Pelican Parts. They have access to many parts that are not on their online cataloge.

Good luck!

I have been lead to believe that original rings are NLA. You might consider either trying to purchase them separately from a speedo shop, or install the best looking set of covers over your existing (probably ugly, damaged, bent, rusted, etc.) factory rings.
I've seen a set on eBay from a guy in Germany that makes billet rings, **** covers, door lock parts, etc. His look pretty decent, but I haven't been convinced this is the way to go just yet.
He also has some carbon fiber-look rings that appear quite nice in the pics.
I am unsure about the attaching method or if they will stay attached as long as you want them to.
