991 dial colours

[Ghost]

I've seen a 991 which ticks a lot of boxes, except for the dials which are yellow, and to my eyes, look hateful. As with older cars, is it possible to change dial colours on newer 911s?

The one in Harbour? Not sure how easy it is to change them and could be expensive

I've seen various custom / coloured gauge face sets for sale for the 991 but have no idea as to how easy it would be to swap them out. I guess it depends upon how handy / comfortable you are with a bit of DIY.

A quick Google took me to a video by AutoAmateur who did this on his 991 a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7P7LmgxGZGA&t

I quite like some of the coloured gauge faces and yellow looks pretty neat, especially if there's other yellow on the car like belts & calipers etc.

I know some guys who make really quality gauge faces in California. Love them. Do you know them?

Worth having a look at 911Time's thread here. He did a great job - it was about recolouring the numerals rather than the colour of the dial faces but the same process could apply I imagine. Know what you mean about yellow dials (or red come to that) - in a Fezza maybe.

Hi Guys, hope you're well and enjoying post-lockdown motoring!! :thumb: As some of you will know, I recently had my seats re-trimmed in Pepita fabric ( http://911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=141075 ), as part of an overall project to create an exclusive 991, as part of my legacy. If I'd specced my...
