A new project on the horizon! A found by chance two interesting things, which I always wanted, ever since i got my 996 instrument cluster:

1.) That instrument cluster had a broken clock shaft/knob from the beginning and was declared defective. And Porsche offers no replacement. So I created a workaround, which worked "okay".
And then this headline caught my attention: "Finally sort out that annoying broken trip or dimmer knob on your 996 or 986 Boxster!"


2.) I always wanted to individualize my center tachometer gauge face, but could not find ANY I liked.
And then I stumbled across "gaugefaces" and we created the following retro inspired, but modern Porsche 911 looking face together:


So I have 2 good reasons to tackle that instrument cluster job. Not really looking forward to it, as it is a fiddly job.
