Can I Replace the Dashboard?
Hey folks. I'd like to upgrade to a Boxster S. I want white/black, like my 97 Base. But I'm finding all the S model interiors also come with blue accents. I don't want the blue.
So... What would be involved in replacing all the blue components? Cost estimate? Worth it or waste? DIY or shop job? Other thoughts or 411? |
Yes, the entire dashboard can be replaced. At least a couple people have swapped the dash or dyed it over the past year. I took one out, but have not done the install. Lots of labor, so I expect it would be expensive at a shop. DIY just takes patience and careful prying of the edge trim.

What blue accents are you talking about? I have a black interior and the only accents are silver.

986 Boxster S. Black top, Black interior. I can find 986 Base Boxsters with all-black interior. Just not S models. They always seem to have blue padding on the dash. I've been looking for some time now, and I keep running into it. I'm not finding all-black interior. http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/h...psvf8nuadi.jpg |

Here's the thread where Meir posted a link to his Dashboard DIY:
http://986forum.com/forums/diy-project-guides/37245-dashboard-cover-removal.html There are non-blue dashboard S models out there. My 2000 has black leather. As Rick suggests, maybe finding the right car would be easier than finding the car and a dashboard to swap in. |
Another S with Black interior here!
