Yeah i thought it was very easy,one of those fun rewarding mods.
But here i took a picture at night and the tach has some weird lighting issues every other number.I might try to take it apart and try to offset it with a some scotch tape so it will dull the brighter numbers a bit.I have never driven the car at night before in the 8 months of ownership.But wanted to get a picture up for some people who might DD.
There is an ebay seller porscheofthemainline
They have a starting price of 150 on their gauges.I emailed them and they are new NR gauges which sell for 200 plus.Might want to try them out.

Oh BTW the center tach is from FVD (Gembella from Germany)which is kind of a pay to play type place.(very expensive)I have no clue how the silver tach looks at night back lighted.The NR back lighting and quality was very nice and balanced.Not to thrilled with having a brighter 1,3,5,7 on my tach.
If anyone is interested in having a silver tach face let me know.

Sweet look

Definitely a nice improvement.

I agree that a red tach would be pretty awesome as well - might look into that...

I originally wanted a red tach face,but the contrast color compared to the speedo needle would make it hard to see peripherally while driving hard.Thats why i went for the yellow.
New
silver tach face is 40 shipped if anyone wants it
