Default Gauge faces

I know somebody that is interested in making back-lit gauge faces for 911s. I was wondering if anyone has their gauge faces scanned in a graphics file. I am trying to avoid dissassembling all my gauges to do this, I'm lazy I know. I would appreciate any help, thanks.

have you considered an on-line search (or on ebay) to find digital images of the faces? maybe your friend could use those for tempatels? Just a thought,

Default God's ride

Regarding God's ride, I agree. I'm thinking a '74 911S, probably Irish Green or that butterscotch color, what do you think?

I think he needs them outside of the bezel/housing and w/o the needle in the scan or it would be a lot of work cleaning up the image.

yeah I need just the faces in actual size. I am trying to avoid taking all my gauges apart. I am also trying to find different gauges since I have the rediculous 85 mph US spec speedo. Thanks guys

N. Hollywood Speedo, advertiser in EXCELLENCE and other Porsche oriented magazines, can certainly help you with a replacement for the 85 mph speedo. Every time I see one of those 85 mph speedos in any make of car I laugh. The politicians must have been smoking rope when they came up with that law.
