Thanks for posting pictures! The wheels look great! Your Boxster is the first i've seen without the Automatic climate control, Never seen that setup before.

Yeah i think whoever bought the car originally saved cash in just about every department and bought NONE of the options The car was the basica model with no aircon, 16" wheels, dash only speakers, etc

I bought it from a Porsche retailer in the UK (and ended up paying a premium for it), but it's actually a Richbrook "Slant Top" gear knob and leather boot.

A word of warning though, the centre hole in mine was about 2mm to small to fit the shortshifter shaft, and I had to spend about an hour with a dremel and a grinding bit to gently grind down the edges and corners of the shaft for it to fit!

sure, I went for what the call the x-quisit edition which includes the speakers and crossoves, but they do a version which includes the empty pods and no crossovers too.
