Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I've seen them for the 993 - I"ve been looking without success for a set for the 996.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey all, Are aluminum gauge bezels available anywhere?

POST 2Original post

I've seen them for the 993 - I"ve been looking without success for a set for the 996. Let me know if you have any luck.

POST 3Original post

Aluminum gauge faces are available for '01 996's at By Design and Carnewal from my recent checks. There are probably other retailers as well. Be certain to ask if they are by Techart or Cargraphic, as there is a price and quality difference between the two according to several posts I have seen. Apparently the light bleeds through the Cargraphic faces. I have been looking for Techart faces for my '02 996, but have learned that they will not be available from Techart until the summer. By Design apparently installs them in your instrument console if you send it to them. Otherwise I guess it is a dealer installation job or a DIY, which has been done by several respondents of Porsche message boards. I suggest that you try a search of them for links.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Andrew, Thanks for the info, but I'm actually interested in getting the bezels that fit outside the gauges.

POST 5Original post

Hopefully some company out there hear our cries for aluminum bezels because they look great even with the stock black face guages. I think for now I heard about painting them but don't want to do that. Hope PAG listens to make aluminum bezels for the 996. Regards. Mike

You might try North Hollywood Speedo <a href="http://www.nhspeedometer.com/" target="_blank">http://www.nhspeedometer.com/</a> I checked with them this morning about aluminum gauge faces and since they specialize in instruments, they should be a good source of information about bezels. the person I spoke with was quite willing to discuss my questions.
