Man those are some seriously nice sport seats - where did you get them and if you don't mind my asking - how much?
Also, where can one find the 968 Door Panels? I'd be interested in doing that myself!

Excellent looking car - love the interior!

Awesome, thanks for the answers! I was thnking the Speedhut bezels might not be what I wanted, but those individual ones sure sound like the right ticket! One more quick question, are the Speedhut gauges opened in the same spots as your previous set to allow for the warning lights?

As for the speed calibration, you can't be far off as the factory speedo goes to tops out @ 170

Thanks!

Man.. thoes turned out pretty damn nice! Do they change color, or did you stick with the blue?

Love the bezel rings.. looked into them but questioned if they would fit the 944. Guess I now know! I might pick up a set down the road.

Melchior, the Speedhut gauge set was $100. I also had them remove the "SPEEDHUT" logo which would have lit up as well for an additional $10 which was well worth it. The Jager chrome rings were $170. It took me about five hours from start to finish taking my time.

Riff, the Speedhut gauges do have the openings for the dumb lights. Since the gauges are black you don't have the cut outs. These gauges were for the 928 but they work on our cars as well. If your going to get them all I can say is take your time. You will have to fiddle with them quite a bit to get them perfect. Just be patient.

The Jager rings were absolutley quality all the way. Superior fit. They pop right in and then with a little epoxy on the back your all set. They look awesome to.

Perry, they do indeed change color. I have them soldered to the middle bulb of the stock cluster. I have the color control under the dash within easy reach. The stock dimmer controls the Speedhut set as well which is pretty sweet. The color varies from a bluish white to a bluish green. I matches very nicely with my Kameleon radio and does not take away fromt he stock lights.

I just ordered a killer shifter and boot from Stuttgart Performance. I'll be adding the pick to my website tomorrow.

944fanatic, the seats are from a company called Koenig. They are suppliers to RUF automobile in Germany. They were originally $800 a piece in Leatherette. I got them at a discount becuase I used my mechanics tax ID. I paid around $450 a piece.
