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

Hi, First post. Just looking to buy a 996 C4S Tip. Thought I might have found the perfect one today but no ali dials (really attached to white and ali dials as my first car had them and all bar one of all my other cars have had as well - first three was coincidence and the rest purposeful) Are Ali Dials a particular option or part of a Pack i.e Ali pack, sport pack etc. Any advice appreciated. Thanks Phil

POST 2Original post

Mine had (amongst other options), the following:- X71: Alumimium instrument dials X97: Aluminium/leather shift knob (!) X98: Aluminium/leather parking break handle. HTH

POST 3Original post

The Ali rings around the clocks is an easy aftermarket add on. White dials might be a bit harder.

POST 4Original post

I fitted white dials to mine, not an easy job. look great by day but not as good as the originals at night

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ah, that will teach me to read adverts wrong. No, I'm actually referring to the dials not the dial surrounds. i.e. the bit with the rev values, speedo, engine coolant gauges etc. You can see it in the following car advert http://www.rsjsportscars.co.uk/more-photos/?grp=7676dd550d8c1590

POST 7Original post

Yes -that's what I have ... X71: Alumimium instrument dials .. as I put in my original response.

POST 9Original post

Ouch! ... just noticed from the price list in the faq section ... " Al-coloured dials X71 £550.00 " That's a lot ...
