Default Changing GT3 logo on digital gauge.

After having done a GT3 to GT3T conversion, there is one thing that bothers me. The logo on the digital gauge still has the wing on it.
How does one go about changing this to the touring version? Can it be done?

It's all in the details isn't it! Good luck on your mission. Keep us posted with what you find.

Yes it really is! It's an 991.2.
So far I've found that it should be possible with PIWIS III. But that's another rabbit hole I got to dive into then..

Good luck, I'm unfortunately of no help with your question but very interested in pics/details of your conversion, if you don't mind!

I only had the conversion for the exterior done. Interior I kept with roll-cage and all so I could still track it if I wanted. It's mostly a daily driver now so I liked it to be a bit more under the radar.
OEM parts were used to do the conversion, including the whole air intake system as they differ between the GT3 and GT3T.

The control for the wing is a standalone system with its own wiring loom so it's easy to revert back to a winged GT3 might I ever decide to.

Some pics below

DC - I'm planning on making starting own conversion for our .2 GT3 in a few months.

You're on the right track with PIWIS for the gauge cluster graphic. You should have needed that for coding the spoiler, no?

I think since the spoiler control is a standalone system it was not needed to use PIWIS for the spoiler. I might be wrong as I did not do the installation myself

I'm curious, did you have to switch to the Touring intake system for your conversion, or, did you just do it because that's the way Touring's come?

Try this: PWS in Dev mode:
Kombiinstrument_A3.5 Fahrzeugvariante GT3 /GTS/GT3RS...

Touring intake was a must. The intake position on both engine lids is completely different

How did you make the satellite stereo "wart" go away? Is that part available without the wart/wart cutout? That might be a worthwhile conversion, removing the factory part with the wart and replacing it with a wartless replacement part. I had my wart painted to match my PTS color. It comes from the factory in black on PTS cars (but it matches the car color on non-PTS colors, interestingly).

That’s odd. I’ve never seen that on any GT3 here in Europe. Guess we don’t have satellite radio.

I think you should be able to order that part without the antenna. But then you have to find another spot for an antenna if u want to use satellite radio.

dc-porsche - Thanks for the quick reply. I did not realize you were in Europe. Yes, European models are spared the Sirius-XM satellite wart. Do you, by chance, have the part number for that component that surrounds the mesh wiring/air intakes? Thanks. Beautiful job on your conversion.

I think that should be part 99151201124 But please double check with someone more knowledgeable than me.

I looked here: https://www.eurospares.co.uk/Parts/99151201124/Porsche
