  1. Most of the signals come off the DME (engine computer). Unless your VW type 1 is "really new" I doubt it has those level of signals.
  2. Scouser, Any pics? Like before and after? (during if you have them too)
  3. The glass alone (996 542 512 02) retails for $132.36. I would expect at least a couple hours labor to install, align and test. Depending on your insurance deductible your comprehensive insurance should cover this.
  4. I have added the preliminary MY06 Order Guides for the Cayenne (V6), Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo. Other models will be added as they become available.
  5. Sorry no, when PET says "Qty Model" "8" - that means 8 used on the car.
  6. Yes and Yes. US cars have amber lenses and white bulbs - RoW cars have clear lenses and amber bulbs. From a dealer expect to pay about $17 each for the RoW (clear) lenses. 997 631 033 01 Left side marker 997 631 034 01 Right side marker If you want a (US legal) yellow bulb then also get two 999 631 138 90 - about $1.84 each retail.
  7. Ok guys - everyone is welcome here as long as they follow our simple rules/guidelines. Keep it friendly and keep it on topic and we can all live with differences of opinion. Porsche has changed and/or deleted the no smoker kit at least a couple times. I tried the but the no smoker plug a few years ago and it did not fit in my stock socket. The dealer at that time said they could get the older non-smokers socket needed to fit the no smoker plug. At this point is is fairly easy to say that most dealers don't know the differences and likely are not sure what they have in stock. Sounds like a market opportunity for someone...
  8. Only optional shift knobs (leather/aluminum, carbon, etc.) have the set screw. The set screw is a hex bolt - you would need an allen wrench 5 or 6 mm.
  9. My list comes from the Porsche parts list for that item. There is a TSB for this kit but I have not received it yet.
  10. Well the Fabspeed kit has a very nice plug for the hole that is left when you remove the baffle -- I just can't see spending $200 for it. If you remove the screens and the baffle you will get a much better induction sound and I think faster revs. Just removing the screens and a free flowing air cleaner like a BMC or K&N will give you some noticeable improvement also (IMHO).
  11. Do you mean the Tequipment package "Drive Power 500 PS"? If so, the parts list is three pages long. Looks like larger air intake pipes (for the turbos), air ducts, tie rods, struts, brakes and a different suspension control unit.
  12. Get some felt tape and have a look at TSB 1/00 7018 Noises In The Dashboard Area (dated 6-30-00) -- page 5, Noise in area 5 – Creaking and/or rattling noises on the panel for passenger’s airbag.
  13. The 000 part number is for the Tequipment "set of 4". The 993 number is the individual part number for the cap.
  14. Retail price is $309.61. Try Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost at the top of the page.
  15. Great job - Thanks! I will move this to the DIY forum and pin it at the top.
  16. Well, they are in PET. PET is published monthly and some part numbers change every month. Kind of a moving target - what ever we would publish would likely be out of date in a month or two. That's why I look them up each time.
  17. Not for Boxsters - Carrera's have changed, there was a pretty major change for MY02 and the 3.6 liter engine - plus you can get the X74 (20 mm lower) for MY02 - on Carrera's since they added some chassis stiffening.
  18. I think the shocks changed several times from MY02-MY05. Not that one is any better than the other. Different weights of cars (body style) , transmissions, 4WD (996's), etc. all affect the cars handling so springs, shocks and sometime swaybars are different. Porsche really does tune these suspensions to the cars.
  19. US, Canada, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong are 315 mhz. All the rest are 433 mhz.
  20. Down below and behind the radio/storage shelfs is phone prep connector with both switched and unswitched 12 volts. +12 volts unswitched (red/green) +12 volts switched (green/black) Ground (brown wire) Telephone Mute Signal (yellow/black wire)
