944 Gauge Ring Bezels -- Simple 911 Retro

As I continue to work on gauge bezels for the '85.5+ 944, I thought I would post this version of retro-911 looking gauge rings. These are basic black, without dash marks or redline marks. Those marks can be added with 'modifiers' in good slicers to match your particular gauges. This is an on-going project (with more to come) but wanted to put out these basic black rings for those who want them now. (Print with support, face up, in the highest resolution you can do, in ABS/ASA or other heat-tolerant plastic.) You need 2 of each for one instrument cluster. They should snap into place, but a drop of glue is probably wise. If they don't snap into place, consider scaling them up or down a smidge (as needed) in your slicer.

These are awesome.

@Tom Is it easy enough to get the glass (or plexiglass) made to fit? Or do these go under the existing plexiglass cover? (I was going to order the rings from you, but I’ve already got a Bambu printer and just found these files.) Thanks.

This was an early version that went under the existing plexiglass, without separate lenses. I opted not to post the ones that take the separate lenses. The lenses need to be cut to fit, so not really something you could order without a lots of trial and error. The difference between fitting right, and not, is about .2mm....
