    Looks like this may be the one! Thanks for the feedback, make sure to come back and post your pics and any pros/cons to the install. When do you plan on doing the install?
  2. LVDell
    Thanks for the insight. I have a feeling it will take a a few days of working up the mental prep to tear apart the pieces. I just hate the thought of "tearing" apart pieces to change them out on a car that so far has been relatively easy with repect to all the DIY stuff I have done (and it has been alot....no thanks to this board! :) )

    only diiference is that one says Porsche on the face plate and the other does not.

    You are correct. I used the FWL switch for my OBC hack and used the 3 "middle" posts. I have the schematic diagram for the FWL switch biut can't figure out how to use the 2 outside posts to illuminate it with the lights on. FYI, to get my spoiler switch to illuminate with the lights on, I just tapped into the two outter posts on my CABtop open/close switch and ran a extra wire off of each to the 2 outter 2 posts on the spoiler switch.....VOILA! Light. No such luck for the OBC hack using the FWL switch. I am banging my head against the wall with this one!

    Ok, so I read your instructions. Very detailed but I got a little confused. You used 2 switches (tail and PSM) for the tail? Not sure if this is the same as I needed (please correct me if I just went way off base). I just want the symbol that looks like the sun on the footwell light switch to be illuminated like the rest of the switches. Maybe I am not thinking clearly since my breakfast was ruined by me leaving the milk in the car last night and now I have butter! **** I had a craving for cereal today. Thanks Berny. Dell

    Thanks Loren for the link....for some reason I didn't see that thread. But......... OH MY GOD!!! Why would they make this so difficult? This is a good fix (work around) but what happens when you want to change out the more expensive strips (say go from Carbon to Alum or vice versa). Holy cow that can get expensive. I dont understand the logic on that one. I guess taking the dash off just to get the strips is a complete waste of time and probably a huge mess?
  7. LVDell
    Thanks Berny. Dell
  8. LVDell
    That's what I figured. Now I know somebody has tried with no luck. Thanks,Dell
  9. LVDell
    Did a search and didn't find anything. Has anybody figured out a way to tint the plastic on the CAB top? Is it even possible?
  10. LVDell
    I am going to replace my 3 sash strips and am looking for DIY help. Anybody replace theirs? Have a .pdf or web page layout of how to do it? I have a MY00 if that makes any differnce. Thanks in advance! Dell
  11. LVDell
    No tax? No shipping? Did you do the Crutchfield special?
  12. LVDell
    I did all the research myself and I have the same setup in my MY00 and even called Becker. I was told it is stratight plug and play. I am probably going to get the traffic pro in the next couple weeks. (still teetering between this and the more expensive LCD screen setups that alpine, pioneer, etc., have).
  13. LVDell
    price? I think that is focal point of this post.
  14. LVDell
    I'll check it out. Thanks.
  15. LVDell
    Thanks for the link, but I have that link.....it is what I used to do the hack. One suggestion that the hack says is if you want night illumination then use the spoiler switch. But.......I already have a spoiler switch in the dash and didn't want 2. So, my questions is still out there. Has anybody be able to get the Footwell light switch to light up after do the OBC hack???
  16. LVDell
    I did both the spoiler hack and the OBC hack. Now, I would like to have them light up when I turn on my lights so they light up like the rest of my switches. So, I was able to get the spoiler switch to light up but the footwell switch will not. :soapbox: Are they wired differently? And yes.....I did try the wires from the spoiler switch to make sure it was not a wiring issue. Anybody wire the OBC hack using the footwell light switch and get it to light up? Jeff, have you done this before? Anybody? Thanks, Dell

  23. LVDell
    What about the batwing with the 2 cutouts? Unless of course you already have the heated seats option my idea is worhtless :)
