Cartels-less 986..?
So I've unsuccessfully been looking for a pic of how a carpet-less 986 looks like, but no luck. I.e., I'd appreciate if someone could give me a pointer.
Besides, I''m also looking for a pic of how a stripped down (fully exposed) brake handle looks like -- without all the plastic.
I just got those aluminum race floor-panels that I'm debating whether to install, in lieu of my soaked & stinky carpets, or not...
(Btw, if anyone in SF bay area knows how to reset an immobilizer, please p.m. me)

And of course bucket seats for major weight reduction... I知 searching.

Sorry guys, I sure wish that one was mine. Dont know why it didn't load with my comments, pic only, but that was posted here previously. I apologize but I dont have the information to give credit where it is due.

Be careful what you wish for. I did that with my 911 years ago. Removed carpet, stereo, AC. Hated it, I could hear every creak and rattle. For a track car yes, street car be careful. I'm actually going to add sound proofing.
I hope you like whatever you do.
If you find those RS panels, please let me know where you found.
