997.1 vs 997.2 AC Unit/Center console
I'm looking to get into a used 911 but it looks like the only options within my budget are the pre-facelifted pre-2009 models. Now I understand PCM 2.1 can't to upgraded to PCM 3.0 (financially feasible at least) so I'd swap out the OEM 2.1 to an aftermarket.
However, it looks like Suncoast only carries the post-facelifted black center-console trim for aftermarket Navi. I know other places do sell the silver trim though. In addition, almost all aftermarket navigation systems have black trim. I'd like to retain the factory look as much as possible. Does anyone know if the center console, more specifically the AC unit below the Navi screen since the above trim will be swapped out, are inter-changable between the 997.1 and 997.2? In otherwords, can I take out the silver trim in the 997.1, and add in the 997.2 black trim/whole AC unit without any errors? Plug-and-play? Fitment (size) issues?
Cheers, thanks for the help
