Default Could this be from Porsche factory?

Here is a picture of 993 with wood dash. Seller does not know if it was factory or dealer installed. Could it have been factory-installed?

I would bet aftermarket. Though you could get the rootwood shifter, ebrake and steering wheel from the factory. I think what is shown there is not OEM.

Yes, you could get wood trim as a factory option. Ask the seller if the options sticker is still attached to the underside of the hood and get a list of the option codes.

In fact, through their Exclusive Programme, you could have the entire interior painted pink with a Hello Kitty motif if you paid them enough.

I have the light wood trim but it's just the steering wheel, shifter and ebrake.

Hmmm, sounds interesting.

As stated, check the option sticker (one under the front, one in the owner`s manual) for the correct codes. Viper Bob is parting out an RLer`s C2S that has most of the interior wood options.

Wow, that sounds interesting! I love the dash, but didn't necessarily like that car. (looking for a cab).
