i have a couple of quick questions for you all. the center console that houses the 3 gauges-was it the same for all years. meaning did it change from one year to another or were there two different types/styles, etc. or was it the same for all years?
and two is it relatively simple to i wire up the three gauges to my 73 that didn't come with the console originally? there is one for sale and i want to move on it asap? i read in my new 914 book (thanks porsche dreamer) that in 73 you could of had it as an option. well i want to add it as an option now (only 40 years late, no big) ha ha. jp |

I'm thinking of having N Hollywood redo my temp gauge in the '73 I'm restoring with numbers so I can actually tell the temp of the oil and avoid the big red zone. Wondering about adding an oil pressure gauge as well. VDO made a two gauge holder in black vinyl/rubber than fits the ashtray opening perfectly- I did that on my '71 way back in the 70's and it still almost looks factory. If I could find one of those I'd use it on the '73.
