Posted by: seanery Sep 2 2003, 09:32 PM

If these are what Karl has (I doubt it) then I'm definitely in for a pair!

Thats a better price than some I have seen. Can we get a group deal on the shipping and retail price for the 914?
I'm in.

I like them also. They will go well with the Grey/black/light grey interior of the black 3.6 car (Blackie)

I've contacted the vendor.

John Dunkle's better half, Jen, posted this a while back on the Rennlist. I think that if you're a Rennlist member, there may be some kind of deal available

no problems.

They have a 100% rating on ebay with 619 and several multiple buyers.
What I asked of them is if we can get a discount on an order of 10 and save some $ on shipping buy doing 1 location and then disperse from that location.

Sean:
Put me down for a set , for dash gauges, and for console gauges also. If we can get that? I was thinking of chromeing the dash panel but this will be better.
Is there anything you have came up with that I haven't bought,yet? Keep them comming! Dave Barberdave

those will look slick when I start on my brushed alum interior!

Posted by: Qarl Sep 3 2003, 09:28 AM

Similar to what I have.... My bezels are actually silver, instead of covers... but it's the same look basically.

My needles are yellow to match the yellow of the car and some yellow interior accents... but you get the drift...

Elke's response:
--------------------------
Hi Sean,

thanks for your e-mail. We are glad to read that you are interested in our rings.

Normally we sell these for 80.00 Euros = 86.00$ one set, but if you will order 10 sets or more we can offer them for 70.00$ each set plus 34.00 Euros = 37.00$ shipping by ground transportation.

We can offer tacho rings polished or not polished which we can ship anytime, titanlook will take a while because here in Germany is still holiday time and our manufacturer is still not working

----------------------
3 Flavors of rings:
Polished, Not Polished, Titanium Look

I'm in for polished.
I've got a couple more questions I'm waiting for answers on and then I'll start a new thread to place an order.

Posted by: Lawrence Sep 3 2003, 11:04 AM

Do the covers come off? How do they attach?

-Rusty

Posted by: Brad Roberts Sep 3 2003, 12:37 PM

This is bad ass. Finally a modern look for our interiors...

If you all go in with a group buy, can we possible get a set for a 911?

-Britain

Posted by: seanery Sep 3 2003, 12:59 PM

More Info:
--------------------------
No problem at all - I`ll attach the fitting instruction. They fit very good and have to be fixed with two very small stripes of adhesive tape which we will send also. Removable any time, without leaving any trace. The wait of titanlook will take between one and two weeks until we will be able to ship them;-) .
If you have questions more just email us.

Regards
Elke and Peter

--------------------------

I've attached the installation instructions.
Britain, what year? I'll check the 911/912 prices.

Even more info:
-------------------
If the small gauges have 52 mm diameter we will have rings ( each ring costs 10.00$):

For the early 911/912 should fit the normal porsche rings (5 pieces), we sold a set for 1972 before and it fitted good, the price would be for one set 85.00$, normally we sell them for 99.00$.

Ciao,
Elke

Count me in on this, very nice.

Group Buy Thread just posted.

Posted by: campbellcj Sep 6 2003, 10:33 AM

Those look pretty sweet.

I would "caution" against anything polished or chromed in the dash area though. You don't want to have the distraction of bright reflections zinging around in your line of vision.
