I'm doing this very soon. Just a quick question regarding the needles.
Do you have to make sure you place them back on exactly where they were when you removed them to ensure the time will be correct?
Also, how difficult was it to remove the needles themselves?
TY!

Good question...I noticed after unplugging the clock, all the hands were at 12'oclock. I put them all back in that position and when I plugged it back into the car, they all cycled clockwise (of course) and stopped/settled on the current time shown in the car.

The little white needles are a bit of a PITA to put back and very fragile. Patience and tweezers are needed.

I followed this guy's DIY and it all worked out just fine!

I'm having a new set of Michelin PS4 rears installed this weekend, plus an alignment, throwing on clear side-indicators, few misc. others.
Track weekend next Saturday, looking forward to it!

Default Numeric Shifter
Ordered numeric shifter... lots of other reviews out there and almost all stellar. Be happy to report out recent results as I receive and install.

I did not get the cables as planned to try shifter then perhaps upgrade cables later. Any noticeable increase in NVH with the transmission mounts?

Cool gauge. I like it.

Can I ask where you got the little red ring at the top of the steering wheel?

I didn't think GT3 Touring was ever an option for V2?

I just installed my DSC v2 for my Targa- you need to be a bit of a contortionist to get into the back seat to do the swap!
Looking at adding the Numeric shifter/cables as well but can't find anyone here in Tucson to do the work.

Great job! I would like to do mine, but I'm so afraid to mess it up...
