Swap to Yellow Gauges

I am looking for yellow gauge faces for my '19 718. Finding them to match the stock gauges for PDK, a 175 MPH max, and an 8K max tach has proven to be a challenge.
Most come in KPM and 9K tach.
Has anyone found a set to match the US stock gauges?

Does your '19 CS have the 175 mph speedo? I thought the S had the 200 mph unit?

Maybe mix and match from 2 separate sets, like these? I suspect they all come from the same source in China, but maybe best to buy both from the same seller to increase the chance the colors match exactly...?

I just checked and it’s neither - it’s 190mph

I was pretty sure the S had higher than 175 (which is what my '18 Cayman Base has), but couldn't remember exactly how high. 190 makes sense. Is 190 easier to find with the 8k tach than 175 is?

Thanks for the responses. Based upon input from another "718" thread, I ordered this set:

Nice find! Does it fit the '19? It seem to only list earlier model years -- though looks just like all the other ones listed for the '19 on eBay...

When you go through the order process it drills down to 718 - S - MPH - PDK and face color.
I’ll follow-up and post pics of faces and installed.

Purchased matching yellow Sport Chrono dial face on evilBay. Very nice match to stock black face - printed on metal with excellent detail down to the checkerboard pattern on the inside circle. Two piece (dial & outer ring) w it’s metal base that attaches with stock screws. Had to do several tried to match up dial hands but finally got it right.
Now waiting for dash gauge dials to ship from Europe.
