I am looking for a retail distributor of OEM interior trim (other than the dealer.) I am particularly interested in a trim piece to move my A/C controls from the upper to lower console.

Thanks!

I realize its a dealer, but I ordered the exact trim piece through Ray Catena Porsche in NJ and it only cost $5.93. Mine hasn't come in yet, its due in Monday.

Joe,

Thanks for the quick response. Is your trim piece for the middle or upper part of your lower console? I would like to find one for the upper side personally.

Hi,

I dont think the upper slot will hold the AC Heat controller. Its slightly larger and there are slots in teh frame that the components slide into. I think it can only go on the bottom. My trim piece was ordered for the bottom.

Thanks, Joe D.

Hi Joe,

Was wondering if you successfully moved your AC Heat controller to the bottom slot. I am thinking of doing the same to install a nav system. My question is, were the wires long enough to reach the bottom slot, and can you post the part # of the trim piece you got from Ray Catena Porsche for the lower slot. Thanks.

I dont have the part number yet. Its been in since Monday and I wont be able to get it until Saturday. I can post it then. Or, you can call them and ask for Allan. He is top notch. Just tell him its the same one Joe D. ordered.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the response. No problem, I just picked up the trim piece at my local dealer in Newport Beach, also the 2 brackets required to install the A/C controller in the lower slot. I also picked up the top Boxter shelf, as it is smaller and fits where the CD caddy was with no modifications. If you need the numbers for the bracket or the top shelf, let me know. Good luck with your install.

John,

Can you post the part numbers for the brackets and the Boxster shelf? Could you also please include pics (if possible.)

Thanks!

The bracket number is 996 573 501 00 (2 required)

The Boxter Top shelf (smaller one) is 996 552 253 01

The A/C trim for the lower slot is 996 552 339 00

I am in the process of painting the parts that fit in the lower console speed yellow. The batwing, the A/C controler, and the boxter shelf.

I will post a picture after I am finished.

John
