The full size tire and wheel can fit behind the seats. The trickiest part is getting it back there.

Default Porsche Crest Centre Console

The mods continue as I keep trying to personalize my off the lot C4. Really love the console. If you are looking for a non-crested version of the centre console, feel free to check out my ad as well.

The factory prescribed procedure is to always place spare tire on front. So if replacing rear tire, place spare on front and move front to rear.

consider installing a black leather boot on your PDK shift ****. I think it would look better and go well with your center console crest.

Thanks for the suggestion but I am not sold on that look for the PDK. I decided to go with the striped trim piece instead as I prefer it.

Finally got around to ordering the LED turn indicators... Once I figure out exactly what's needed for a steering wheel swap, that is next!!

My spare is a collapsable tire/wheel that lives in the frunk. Since a full size front or rear will not fit there, I tested the space in the back seat.

Good Choice!!!


Questions:

- How in the world did you get it off the pallet? Any pointers would be helpful

- Where did you source those additional ramps from?

Thank you

I ask myself how the hell I got the lift off the pallet too now thinking about it lol. Basically I removed all the sides. Then I used a car jack on one end to lift the pallet so it leans enough where I can start sliding the lift slowly off. Once it starts touching the floor you kind of reach a balance point with the pallet and you can forcefully start pulling it backwards. On the last part where the lift is almost off the pallet, you can actually place some blocks or the jack stand so it won't fall to the floor. I'm sure this will be a million times easier if you have some friends. Unfortunately I did this all by myself and it was quite an undertaking, but luckily everything went well.

The ramps where also purchase from Twin Busch. You can see it on their website. I ordered it the same time I bought the lift. Just ask Dan. He's been super helpful and responsive to every call and emails I've sent his way. In my opinion, these ramps are a must have as it reduces the ride height in order to get the lift blocks underneath your car.

Thank you

Mine came packaged like yours , which is unlike what is on their website.

can you confirm that there are No bolts holding the lift to the pallet or any wood pieces?

Yup no bolts holding the lift onto the pallets. I saw on YouTube that they use to be like that. Luckily it's not like that now.
