[Stl-986]

look on youtube for other videos on the foam repair. it can be done without cutting a big hole in the air duct.

As far as audio goes, might want to start a new thread on that one. Have 20+ years experience in this area and have done over a dozen 986/996 cars as well as 928, 924, 944 and that doesn't include all of the other cars I have done. Best advice I give people for any car is 1st determine your budget, then determine your needs/wants and then after all that figure out what you can do in that budget.

Keep in mind it is a convertible so no matter how expensive of a speaker/amp/etc you get....it's still a convertible and no amount of money is going to make it sound as good as your home system or a hard top car. Best thing anyone can ever do is just replace all the speakers, head unit & amp. You can use existing wiring which is the most labor intensive, but putting 4 ohm speakers in a 2 ohm syste is never going to last and things will absolutely blow and the sound will be worse. To make it even harder...good luck finding "good" 2 ohm speakers on the aftermarket....they just dont make them for the consumer.
