I'd personally go for the steering wheel delete first.

Best mod ever ...

Never any outdated electronics that are old within a few years. The 991 design = timeless

Only trouble will be trade-in / sell it time. 99.9% of folks will want the radio and other features.

That said, the only **** I ever dial when I get it is to turn to sport mode...

This would be one way to alleviate the door vibrations from the speakers.

Are you going to remove the speakers as well? I'm guessing that due to the magnets the speakers might be the heaviest portion of the PCM.

No, too much effort. Just radio, to be honest, I just want a place to throw my keys/phone in.
