I know, I know wrong Spyder. But it just popped up on my FB feed and I think it's pretty cool.

Good comparison of Racing to Speed Yellows.

No.
Carrera GT is Fayence Yellow. A total of 89 were built in this color.

Well, the key-fob with license "number" on a yellow ribbon, wasn't new, the yellow dials are from factory, the sport-chrono is also from Zuffenhausen, the Ricola candy is not the latest, but from Swiss, the paddles behind the wheels are from JCR, but already 2 years old.

The latest is the PDK shift lever + alcantara sleeve with speed yellow stitching are from JCR (OEM but adapted for the match inside a yellow Spyder).

PS (all the other yellow stiching is from Zuffenhausen too)

Well, I would have gotten it wrong then, but I did have the right vendor, JCR... I thought it was the paddles!

I too added the yellow shifter from a GT3 to my car, but it was sourced from Porsche directly.

Not to derail the yellow topic but where did you get that phone mount? Looks like it mounts using one of the factory screws under the tunnel trim. Looks like it might interfere with gears 5 and 6 in a manual but might be worth a try for me. The magnetic one I've used in the past doesn't work well with the case I have.

Brodit phone mount, I’ve no issues with shifting ;-)
Just added an important small yellow detail to the cockpit, a Swiss car vignette 2023.
A real must have

I gave up on traditional magnetic cases and have switched over to the Quad Lock system, their products are first rate and they have mounts for cars, motorcycles, bicycles etc. So one case and used in multiple situations, even on your desk at home! Quad Lock USA® - Official Store (quadlockcase.com)

When I get some time I am going to modify my Rennline car mount (uses the PCM screws) to accept the Quad Lock head.

I'll be watching closely. I also use(d) the Rennline mount and want a better option that still utilizes the screw behind the tunnel trim.

issue with most mounts is not the connection phone to mount, but mount to car, and that’s where the brodit promount has it pro’s. It slides over the Porsche console tunnel and sticks there.

And what is that little contraption at the bottom of the mount that holds your cable in place? I don't see that on the Brodit site.

EDIT: Never mind. Found it on the Proclipusa.com site.
