Aside from Jager and the one guy on Ebay out of the UK, are there any other vendors for the aluminum gauge bezels?

the ones at Porscheshop.com (gulp) are the correct bezel and rings set.

no, speaking from experience, i'm not crazy about this store.


when you go to the Porscheshop website, you would assume they have some giant warehouse with everything ready to go.


don't make that assumption.... but this item is pretty low-risk, so...

I bought mine off of ebay.de, they were about 50-60 shipped...I really liked the quality but it was a year or 2 back.

Thanks guys. In spite of the overdone styling in the ad, I bought some from the Ebay guy.

They're ok quality. Not as thick looking as the Jager rings, but they'll do. I also went back to the black gauges from white. Pics installed:







Some really old pics of the white gauges:
