Picked up a set of gauges for myself. These gauges were made in the 1990's for American hot rods. They also just happen to fit the 914 center console with no trim ring. Quite a bit more visible than the 52mm gauge. Gauges have been NLA for sometime but they pop up every now and then. Showing comparison between gauges.

Nice find! It's too bad they don't make the 2 5/8" anymore. What an easy upgrade for 914 center consoles that would be.

I installed these in my GT project last Sunday in preparation for my first long trip.
The oil pressure gauge was easy.
Marks expertise made the oil temperarure gauge an easy job too.
