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. Attached image(s) |

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. Attached thumbnail(s) |
