All,
According to the parts catalog, the /6 combo gauge is part number 914.641.101.20. This is the only /6 combo gauge part number listed. Certainly, the parts catalog has its share of omissions, so I am not overly surprised at finding this... (IMG:http://p914.com/p914-resources/p914-gauges/p914-6-gauges-combo-10-number.jpg) Does anyone have any insight as to the differences between the ".10" and ".20" gauges? The only thing I see is that the ".10" gauge has off-white coloring for the face text and inserts. Also, it would be logical that the ".10" gauge preceded the ".20" gauge in production, so I was wondering if there was a specific VIN or timeframe changeover. Thanks for any info you may have... |

The Porsche parts catalogs are full of parts that don't exist... And don't include parts that do exist as well. Facts of which we are all painfully aware! Anyway, if the ".20" gauge does not exist, I expect that no one will respond that they they have one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If it does, I'd like to know about it. |

I just checked my '71 six (very late built => COA says delivered on June 1st, 1971) voila: 914.641.101.20 => this is the evidence that they exist (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) Gustl |

voila: 914.641.101.20 => this is the evidence that they exist (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) Even better, how about the fact the BOTH are still available from Porsche? 914.641.101.10, COMB. INSTRUMENT, $86.31 914.641.101.20, COMB. INSTRUMENT, $271.13 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Andy |

INSTRUMENT, $271.13 Color me perpetually skeptical, but I'm not sure I'll believe that until someone orders and takes delivery of both. Case in point - you can order an early 911 Targa windscreen seal by part number. It'll even come in a bag with the original part number on it. However, you will not get the original part - you'll get the 'superceding' part from a newer (1990+, IIRC) car. Alas, I don't have the $350 to invest in this exercise, which I'm sure would be educational ;-) |
