Do they make silver gauge rings? I want to do this mod but I don't think the chrome rings would fit with might tan leather/light wood interior

Actually, I think they are called aluminum and not silver. Not sure about fitment, because I've never installed those, but using the article here at X5 World, it oughta be real easy to do.

I am on vacation, with my X5 still at home, or I would post a photo showing my tan leather/light wood/black dash with the chrome rings (or call them silver or aluminum, if you prefer). I think they look really nice, and I am glad I was finally convinced by this crew to do the mod!

Statdoc-

Could you post some pics when you get back from vacation? I'm anxious to do this mod, but I'm afraid it won't look right with the interior. I'd really like to see some pics first. Also, is there anyone in the Winston-Salem,NC area that has done this install and would be willing to give me a hand with it? I'm usually pretty good at doing these things myself but I have never worked on a gauge cluster before. [Monetary payment for services will of course be provided]

Here you go---(forgive the black rubber floor mat in one photo..I have been doing yard work today, and hadn't taken that mat back out yet).

They look great JV...hey Tahoe you have some sweet rides but it looks like you definitely need a bigger garage especially with the Z06 on the way, I heard that ride is a killer!

Gauge rings look great. The seller mentioned in this post does not have any items for sale. Which e-bay vendor do you recommend now, or can you purchase from dealer?

thanks,drs
