Tim,
Take a look at my web site. It has all the pictures.

The rubber stubs on your ruf pedals are pretty worn down. How long have you had them? Are the stubs replaceable? Is it getting slippery?

I wish someone can wire the V1 to a smaller display panel so the control module can be totally hidden.

They were almost brand new in that picture. I think it's just a dirt caused illusion, not wear at all.

Just called branywine, this is their normal price. I just ordered them and Justin said they are made by the same Co. as the oem. I should get them tomorrow and I'll let you know the quality.

Performance Products has the chrome bezels, but it's backordered and they're raping you on shipping ($17 for an item that weighs a few ounces!). Still, a tempting alternative for only an extra $30.

I think the chrome ones would look really sharp... the aluminum looks good but the chrome will certainly make the instrument cluster the centerpiece of the interior...

is it www.performanceproducts.com or are you referring to another URL for the chrome ones?

Yes, the order line number is 196545. If you want, click on my Boxster link in the sig and go to Performance Products through their banner on there, so I get a little commission.

Well,

Ideally, I'd like to see what they look like before I order...

the pics on ebay of the aluminum rings vary too much for them to be the same product... hmmm

I have the cluste background painted in aluminum silver and I don't know how aluminum on aluminum would look... I saw some chrome rings on the m3 coupe and they looked hot...

I ended up going with the FVD's. The fit could be better and the superglue is messy if you're not careful. They look good, if I had it to do over, I'd get oem/bp's I think.
