I just wished the sport-tex had red-accents as well like how the lizard green T interior have the green accents.









And last but not least, my favorite interior option by far lol... the PD subsecond clock!


What kind of mat are these ? Looks great. It seems to cover more area than the 3D Mat that I am thinking to get (https://3dmatsusa.com/collections/cu...kxMSBDQVJSRVJB).

Do you have picture of the coverage area for the rear mat ?

Instead of wiring it that way you should've wired it out the back of the battery cover (white arrow) and leave it lying across the area where the green arrow is that way you don't need to worry about not being able to close your frunk while charging or being unable to get your frunk open because you let the battery run down inadvertently.

Higher up (closer to windshield) as you suggested, wouldn't that be more prone to getting wet (i..e rain, car wash) ?

@masmole I just found this. Looks like this is what you have https://www.tuxmat.com/products/8585...ear=2024&inp=1. Can you confirm ?

How is the fit ? (I am not getting weather tech this time, their measurement is not as accurate as it used to be. 3D mat seems to be more precise than weather tech. But this Tux Max definitely has vertical coverage for the back seat footwel)

Yes, those are exactly them. Great fit on the 992 and they supply a bag of retaining clips to use as needed to make it fit as snug as you want. As mentioned on an earlier post, I also have these Tuxmats on a daily-driven Taycan going for almost 2 years now and very happy with their durability and ease-of-maintenance. I'm also a fan of weathertech floorliners but these Tuxmats not only offer more coverage but IMO look better too.

I was thinking about it, but have few questions
  1. what is the view like from he drivers seat, is it visible?
  2. water ingress a problem during heavy rain fall? that area seems to be sealed well at the trim level
  3. also with that dongle dangling, how does it hold up on freeway speed, I didn't know about the Porsche but my other SUV have micro buffeting at the wiper level (u can see them vibrate) and does the dongle cause steady tapping and eventually wear out the trim?
sorry, but looks like I am overthinking it.. <blush>

The T with aero has higher top speed than my T without. Should not be the case right? Had some left so think 316 is possible.

No issues with any of those things for me, it tucks in nicely and is easy to grab when you want it.

I have mine coming out on the left side of this picture next to the trunk lid strut (had to extend the adapter cable a little to reach from the battery, for some reason CTEK makes the pigtails pretty short). Easy to access and plenty of room to acces and connect w/o opening the frunk. Just one other note - make sure you put the plastic cap on when not in use to prevent water ingress...that is what that little cap is for. Never had an issue and super convinient to jusyt plug it in when I know I will park the car for some time.

It'll take you less time to check your concerns out for yourself than it will for me to respond. I'm fastidious about these kinds of things and it's not a problem at all.
