Default Replacing Dial Face

I recently bought my first Porsche, a 1993 C2 in Seal Grey.

It has a few niggly jobs that need doing but one of them which has returned a bit a of blank in my internet research is replacing the clock face of the dial to the left of my rev counter - the one with the two guages and most of the warning lights.

The orginal face has broken down and started to flake off. The damage seems to orginate in the centre, indicating the heat from the bulb has caused the damage

Anyway, is there an replacement in black I could get hold of without having to replace the whole guage?

REAP. Google it and you should find them. As far as I can tell everyone in the UK uses them. c.£70 per guage I think. You send them your guage and they reface it for you, its not a sticker that they send you. Peeling guages are very common. Good luck.

I don't think so. No email, no website.
