New owner of a 991.2 gt3 manual

[goog777]

Hi guys,

Picking up a miami blue gt3 fron porsche leeds on friday. Cant bloody wait! Its my first porsche and has some great options on it and only done 444 miles! The only thing its missing for me is the white dials. Does anyone no if its possible to change the dials and where you can get it done at.

Cheers chaps

Congrats on the car....I’ve got a manual 991.2 GT3 too and absolutely love it. They mature like a nice wine too....definitely open up/get noisier over first few thousand miles.

I’ve seen these people mentioned on forums before

No idea if they do 991.2.

Congratulations!

Oh yes, changing dial faces is certainly possible. Here's a useful link: https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-gt3rs-and-911r...

I'm not sure you'll find REAP either responsive or able to supply 991 generation faces but there are some alternative high quality sources. Have a look for Lockwood International for one good source. I think you can also get them from a German supplier but I forget the name; a Google search will throw it up.

Good luck!

James

Edited to say that the German supplier is Brombacher. Choices, choices...

Porsche UK outsource much of this kind of thing to REAP, I reckon try go direct to cut out the middle man! When I was in his workshop last year he was switching over the dial colours on a 991 turbo I think (and complaining how cheap the plastic housing is Vs the older air-cooled generation metal dials) 😊

Congratulations and welcome to what is perhaps Porsches finest car in decades.

It might be the case that REAP respond better to Porsche Cars GB than they do to individual, private customers... That would be consistent, unfortunately, with my experience.

I bought a batch of dials and did the change myself, I am sure I still have some, may even have a set in white, I could do this for you if you are local.

Great car and I can guarantee that once you start driving it, you’ll forget about the colour of the dials

Hi Carl,

That would be great, thanks so much. I am up in Yorkshire but would be happy to travel to you. Is it a big job?

It’s a bit fiddly but I reckon doable in about 90 minutes, have done three cars now and they get quicker with everyone.

More than welcome to pop over and I sort, could do it in evening at my home.

Have red, white and a yellow set left. I had a few sets made up years ago.
