Well I sure wouldn’t. The 7MT has developed into a fantastic manual gearbox. Seventh gear is just there for highway cruising. Otherwise, just forget about it. You guys who are new to the brand should have been there when the 991 came out, you would better appreciate what Porsche has done with this gearbox.

I did a few mods today. Only one left is to hard wire the radar detector. I couldn't figure out how to release the right side of the overhead light console. Anyone do this yet? And also have anyone tapped for power? It's different than the 991/718 design.

Many want LWBS, which are not available to us.

How about these, not as light, but designed for G-forces greater than 992 T can generate

@toph4242 I think it was you like 7000 posts ago considering this to avoid fingerprints, so I’m not taking credit for this idea!

Awesome! Thanks for posting... Yes, that was probably a month or so ago at this point, but I found the leather replacement on Suncoast and I will likely make the same swap on mine! I hate the Piano black and might either replace all of it or go with a matte/stealth PPF film for mine once I get it home.

@Barkat03 @Pivot how bizarre. Seeing we’ve been emailing about audio, I’m married to a Joberg girl, she’s been in the UK 22 years !

Wouldn’t it be a good idea to start a base audio upgrade topic? So that info is not lost.

Chalk with that green T package interior just looks great!

I just put some of these in the car and have no issues. Just 5 second cleaning. I do like the GT3 brushed inlays though, like the current ones in the door sills.

Are you kidding me! I am so all over this. Is this your company or are you testing this for them? I would love to get on a list so that when they are ready I can order. This made my day.
