I've been looking at Youtube videos of changing the Sport Chrono clock and Tach gauge face to red/yellow/white, and kinda think I'd like to do this mod. I've searched for Tach faces in red (I'd also consider white) but only find ones for PDK, save one I found on eBay for a manual but it doesn't read "GTS" on the face and I want mine to read "GTS." The sport chrono clock face is easy to find and I'll probably get one soon, but I can't find the tach face. If anyone has a source please PM me. I've only looked on eBay and Amazon, not sure of any other source other than dealers but they are $$$. Thanks.

I tried Suncoast using my VIN. I have a CGTS 4.0 PDK - their gauge doesn’t say GTS😞. You’ve probably tried the dealership part’s Dept? @Bill in Bama I sent you a PM

Yeah, but as you notice in the link you posted, Suncoast wants $785 for the gauge faces, compared to @ $80 on eBay. I found one for a 6 speed used from a wrecked car, but it doesn't say GTS and its $157. I'll keep looking I guess. I'm sure my dealer could beat Suncoast, they usually do if I ask, but not the eBay prices.

If Suncoast stocked CP’s drive mode covers, they’d be $350+
