Anyone have a car yet with Bordeaux gauges?

Here is a pic of mine on my 2017. Love them and have the matching seatbelts.

Thank you for posting pic, that helps a lot with the decision making process... Look great!

I do like colored gauges! Red is awesome -- but I couldn't do red with red interior. Got yellow instead.

I see you did the same and left the chrono clock black as I did. I'm not a fan of the wart on the dash and didn't want to add more focus to it with a gauge color that contrasts the dash.

Happy to help. Thanks!

Stage - while you're in the mood to help, can you share some more pics of your interior with specific focus on the dev. stitching please? I believe your exterior is Carmine Red.

I'm about to lock in an order for a CR with Bordeaux dev stitching and would love to see some existing shots. I'm getting all the standard spaces deviated and debating on adding additional areas (e.g. extended dash, rear center tunnel, etc). Looks like you have at least the extended dash done.

If you have them somewhere on RL, Happy to do a search.

Thanks!

I am thinking of changing the gauge face as well as sport chrono from black to yellow on the 911.1 tts.

My dealer is giving me an answer that as per my vincode my car has those in black and thus yellow ones can't be ordered )))

What is the cost of it?
And what is the best place to roder it from?



Thanks in advance!

Nothing beats white gauges. The readability is best-in-class, and the elegance is unsurpassed.

For this type of interrior I agree. But mine is fully black

They all look amazing. Red, Yellow, White!

Are there any after market options for this?

stealthpilot

Yes they can be retrofitted but it's not easy. Personally I wouldn't be comfortable doing this to any car I own.

Thanks.
I'd not try it myself, but would be happy for a professional to do it. My car was purchased off the floor and one of the options I'd have picked 100% would have been coloured dials.

Is the FVD the best option on the market in terms of quality?

I would shy away from that.

As a part the instrument cluster for the 991 costs $3000. With colored gauges it costs $4000. Very simple system and consistent with the option prices.

So if you order colored gauges on a new 991 you are in for an increase of $1000 on every future repair for any detail of the cluster going out. And no doubt a longer wait time for the part.

That is why some of the packaging that Porsche does on options is annoying. For example the GTS interior package forces you to have special gauges. Not only a problem for options but might also affect functionality. The GTS interior package should be cosmetics forcing only.
