The wart is for Sat radio only. I had it on my GT3 and explicitly ordered the RS with no Sat radio to get rid of the wart. I may have the only “no wart” RS around because I ordered no sport chrono and no Sat radio.

I didn’t see the option to exclude sat radio on .2 did you see it?

Agree, I much prefer the 991.1 TT rear to the .2.

These are much better looking than on the .2. Does seem like a bit of an afterthought.

There's an option to remove it, it's called the delete radio option. Not an option for me, deleting just the sat rad is a no go, Exclusive wouldn't do it.

Just an FYI. The SAT antenna is extremely easy to remove. You can cover the roof with a wrap after. It is hideous. They used to stuff it in under the windshield wiper cover back in the day, but reception was less than optimal.

How? What hole is left behind? A small plug with some silicon to keep water out would be great. Maybe we can get bumper plugs to make something.

Drop the rear part of the roofliner. It's a single bolt with a nut and washer. The wiring harness has a clip a little further down. Disconnect and wrench off the nut. Small hole left behind. I just wrapped the roof in 3M CF. I'm sure there are other ways to cover the hole as well.

LOL. Same here, love the look. Specifically chose lighter color, GT silver, to show off the flat black accents.
