Took about 45 minutes to install all 5 of them (L front, R front, C front and 2 side vents). I think it took longer to mask off the painted areas than it did to actually install the units.

They were a very nice company to work with. The price is a little high, but the quality and customer service is first class.

I have chrome ones on my Black 01S and love them. I got mine crazy cheap because someone had ordered the wrong ones for his car and just found them on eBay , their workmanship is incredible and a perfect fit.

Frontpage: I love your rims. What are they? Speedline? Keskin? Something else?

Not today, but yesterday I ordered a vinyl decal with the text "AUF WIEDERSEHEN" for my spoiler.

I've also received a package with new trim for where my handset used to be and a OBD2 bluetooth reader.

They are Veloce 3.6 wheels. Bought them direct from Veloce in the UK. They are one piece Speedline replicas. I have genuine 3 piece Speedline wheels on my 930 and love them. So I figured a one piece version would be a nice road wheel for my 986. So far...so good. They are also a first class company to work with.

Replaced passenger side door lock, then proceeded to replace the drivers side window regulator.

Picked up my wife from her baby shower today, who knew the Boxster would be such a good hauler! Name: Image1461472636.007600.jpg

This weekend I changed out the broken driver mirror, cabin & engine air filters.

Autocross School! What a hoot! Awesome to drive the old Box like it was meant to be driven and be exposed to the AX experience. Two

I took off my muffler.

Myoung73 · 04-25-2016, 04:26 AM

Replaced dash speakers with some alpines. Nice improvement. My OEM speakers were actually in good shape no rips etc. But I destroyed them to use the OEM baskets to mount the new speakers. Next up installing the rear speaker kit from suncoast.

PCinDC · 04-25-2016, 06:05 AM

Installed:

- 997 seats, heaters and power working after some re-wiring
- Carbon fiber parking brake (bought at Hershey for a STEAL)
- Red center console, grey trim bits
- Red horsehoe dash trim
- Red gauge surround

Couple other bits coming next weekend

PCin DC - looks great. I really like the 997 seats. Hand brake needs adjusting.

Thanks! Yes, it definitely needs to be adjusted. I'll worry about that next weekend. Hopefully my other bits come in time.

PCinDC things looks good, how difficult was it to power the heated seats. I have a 99 and would like to have heat. But did not think it was possible to retro-fit a 99?

CoBeerToad · 04-26-2016, 06:20 AM

Installed a tow hook license plate mount thingy. Hate having a front plate, but now that I'm not right next door to Indiana anymore, I know I'd be asking for trouble.

It wasn't too much a pain. Had to reroute my frunk cable from the tow hook hole, but I found a good place for it underneath.

Gorgeous color!

Arctic Silver... we had a pcar group get together, there were 10 Arctic silver Boxes (out of 14 total Boxes) there.
Most common color, I think.

I sourced the center console switches from ebay and ran a new circuit from the battery. Wasn't too hard, just be careful, fuse the circuit and use adequate gauge wire. If you've wired an amplifier this isn't that much harder. Just need to account for the relays which you typically wouldn't on something like an amplifier install.
