Had both and prefer 5 but as long as the tach is in the middle I'm happy.

How about 3 with a Oil Temp & Oil Pressure LED strip?

That looks interesting. I'm not 100% sure I like the "modern" look, but where did you get them? Is it an easy DIY?

I wanted Oil Pressure and Temp guages and was looking for a way to get that that was not overly obtrusive.
This is a Photoshop test to see if I like what it would look like.
I have not built them yet.
I have to agree that the modern LED's mixed in with the classic Porsche style do not mesh very well in that Test.
I think I need to come up with something that flows better and looks more retro but is similarly compact.

Fab986,
That seems odd. Is there an issue with yours, or could it just be set to something else? Seems like something that could be selected through the on-board computer.

I guess it has something to do with the model year, I have a 2001 S. Here's how it looks on mine:
