hey ice, yes it does have the "dolphins" but I there are many more "entertainment" display options. I either leave it on the volt meter, or I leave it on the old school sound level meter. Its fun. display is stuck on dim so it can't be seen during the day. at night it isn't too bad either. It doesn't look like something that a porsche should have, but who cares? It was a Christmas present so I'm not one to complain.

Well As most of you know this porsche for me has been sort of a Journey. I got this car about a year and half ago have been steadily going through my list of projects to try and put this car right and keep it that way. The shift **** for me was somewhat symbolic and I swore that it would be the last piece I would change .. indicating the end of my Journey. When that happens I usually move on to another project car .. I have really enjoyed the Journey and although I am far from done I had an epiphany ..... I decided ...... screw it it looks ugly ....

I actually could not find an original at a decent price so this one I picked up at Hershey for 25.00...

well at least you still have your original. I ditched mine because a.) it wasn't the original one, and b.) the ***** flew at me when I tried to remove it...never have found those either....

Good morning Ice,

All this radio talk, I thought you'd like to see a picture of my current radio



I intend to update this one in a while for a Carbon Fibre one.

I think if it was in the targa top I would of found it by now. But then again every time I start cleaning the interior I find some new plastic chip of something or other. at this point I don't think I can care that much for a 35 year old car. It is nice, but if it is missing some silly plastic pieces, eh...oh well.

I'll be sure to post pics of the paint job when it is done. It will be about a month or so. I'm paying a guy to do it on the side so it will be slow. after that I think I'll just pay someone to redo the wheels to match colors. haha, I found these wheels all over the place so they don't have any matching colors. But they do match...somewhere.

I wondered what other gauges I could stuff into my car as well....(ricer anyone?)...so i opted for just a stereo. :P
