I did mine in the car and it was pretty simple and a great looking upgrade. I had to go back on one of mine, pull it off as the tape was not sticking in one part and then I used a different tape (3m tape) and put it back on. perfect!

Thanks a lot!

The gauges are from 996 GT2, dial faceplates are silver and the gauges front frame is from a Carrera GT, fitted with mirrorpolished rings.
