replacing cup holder and AC control switch


Recommended Posts

Since I bought the car and these two parts were damaged. it not noticeable but it annoying me and I like my car (as we all do) to be perfect! So I decided I'm going to replace them. The AC control switch doesnt come by it self (its attached to all other keys in the control board!) and the cup holders are also both one part.

Anyway I found both parts new and agreed with my dealer that they will replace it for me (I'm not a big DIY person and wouldnt risk playing with it) for around $530. is this reasonable? any advice? I'm getting it done this weekend and will post pics afterward :D

Thanks for this Paul! its a bit too late as I ordered the parts already :(

I'm looking at the bright side though, as you said I will have piece if mind when the dealer install them.

Many thanks for your advice though!

Do you know how much is the PSE at sunset?

Wanted to change two of my AC plastic control flaps (the thing used to direct the airs direction from the AC) myself and the dealer quoted me 500 euros for parts only excluding installation! I decided to live with my slightly imperfect Porsche the way it is :)...

I would phone Suset for a price. A credit card cut

in half is the only tool you need.

No, you will have to call them.
