Butterfingers - As others have said, getting the control unit out of the dash is dead simple. Just use a small screwdriver to pop off the trim piece, then you have to remove 2 screws. The controller then just pulls out. Then you unplug the 2 connectors on back (hold down a little piece on the top of each plug to get it to release while you pull).
To open the controller: On mine there are 3 screws holding the front LCD portion to the read main body. The circuit board on the back of the LCD is connected to a circuit board inside the controller body by a small computer-style cable.
The eBay vendor says in his ad: Porsche Boxster with similar LCD display. "Requires minor modification to existing LCD mounting bracket for proper installation. LCD is electrically and visually identical to Porsche OEM with a slightly wider LCD glass. Please contact for additional info.". I sent him some questions yesterday; no response yet.
Like: What minor modifications are required to the existing mounting bracket? Does the "slightly wider LCD glass" fit into the controller body properly? What "additional info" does he have?
What exactly have you been provided in the way of hardware? What instructions did he supply to help answer the questions?
thx Norm
