Another tip is to make sure you reset the needles back to the stop limit before reinstalling into the car or all readings will be off.

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.

18 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all! Can anyone recommend a shop in the San Diego area to install the white face gauge overlays? I purchased the kit thinking I could do it myself. I had some work done at a long time Porsche shop but won't to go back. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated..

POST 2Original post

I did end up doing these myself, seems daunting but is actually very straight forward. Take your time when cleaning and applying the faces and make sure you leave no air bubbles. Here is a video on how to remove the cluster. You Tube Another tip is to make sure you reset the needles back to the stop limit before reinstalling into the car or all readings will be off. All in it took less than an hour to complete.

POST 5Original post

where are you getting the different color inserts? That yellow is awesome!

POST 6Original post

Wow! $755 for yellow at Suncoast. https://www.suncoastparts.com/produc...gaAnBFEALw_wcB That's for a 997. I did not look for 996. And these replace the entire gauge face, not stickers.

i can't seem to find one for a 996, but I'd like to!

thanks! How is the quality? $25 vs $450 is a staggering difference!

POST 13Original post

When I had my new cluster reprogrammed to my original mileage I had the company install yellow FVD faceplates. They look factory. I also ordered the stickers first and frankly after seeing them I aborted that plan and bought the FVD kit you see installed below

Quotes source post: 16872825

My impression of the quality is that it is quite high, I've had a few people tell me they didn't know 996s came with factory yellow gauges.

POST 15Original post

I was able to get the cluster out but couldn�t figure out how to remove the two adjustment screws for clock and odometer. Help?

This is a great place and for much less with tons of customization: https://www.heiler-tachodesign.de/Kmh_65 https://www.redlinegoods.com/Carrera9904shiftboot.php
