Can anybody tell me the difference between these three gauges - as in, early/late, is one for a 6, relative value?

The top one is very similar, but not identical, to the one in my 6.

Steve...look at the very top inside the glass on the front face of the gauge....there is a small Porsche part number in white printing that will tell you what they are from...

I agree that the top one looks cobbled. To my eye, it looks like it has a 914 part number, but the embossing on the warning lights is late 914, IIRC. It also looks like the silver button was added. Looks a little off center to me (slightly low). The temp gauge module looks like a -6 unit though. As far as I know, the six gauges all had four positions for warning lamps, with only three of them used.

The part number is - 914.641.102.10. The silver dot is dead center. I don't think it was added. But, I could be wrong. It is an interesting gauge. Here is a better picture. No point in letting it sit in my garage. Just curious what it is before I put it up for sale.
