Finally finished my upgrades!
After owning my 01 boxster for 5 months, I finally finished all, for the moment, the upgrades.
The list so far:
BBS RS-GT wheels & Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R tyres (18")
JVC touch screen headunit
Alpine PDX 4.100 amp
Jehnert Dash & Door Speaker pods (wired to amp)
PNP Rear Spreaker Kit (wired to headunit)
Shortshifter & Alloy gearnob
Clear headlight upgrade front and rear with silver indicator bulbs
HID 6000K headlight bulbs
Designtek muffler
Designtek panel airfilter
Alloy pedals
Repainted Calipers
There's probably other bits I've forgotten, but here's a load of pics:-

Location = Jersey?
LOL, did you move the driver experience from the left to the right too  What does the "Engine Start" button do (other than the obvious if it does actually start the engine?) Love the exhaust and rims, got to change out those lug nuts though. Looks great!

I think he means Jersey as part of the Channel Islands in the UK, not New Jersey in the US.

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.
