Default White Instrument Dials

Has anyone changed their dials to white?
Suncoast sells a non OEM version and I was interested to see a picture if anyone has made the switch?

Seems expensive and would require tearing the dash up, which is rather likely to create rattles. I'd also miss the GT4 logo on my instrument cluster.

FVD also advertise colored dials. But I agree, opening up the gauge cluster to change the faces is not something I would like to do.

That's one thing I didn't like on the 2 981cs I had and my GT 4 is the dark dash gauges. I forgot to order another color. White or yellow , can't remember if you can order white? The cost is a rip like most Porsche options. in retrospect should have taken the pipe and ordered it. carl

I think colored dials are not an option on the GT4

Unlike the GT3, the GT4 doesn't have any factory options for different gauge face colors.

The gauges that Suncoast sells come from FVD. Says so in the product description on their page.

Good points. One less thing to think about.
I do wish Porsche offered the white dial option. Looks better on white car with black interior IMO.
