What shift **** do I have?
My car came with a cashmere and black interior. I have since replaced my cashmere shift ****/boot with the black one shown below. It's a Porsche part that I believe is standard except for the aluminum shift pattern insert.
Is it from a special model or was it an option on all models? Is there a matching emergency brake handle and if so, what does it look like? I need to know what I should be looking for. Thanks much.

The one in the pic is just the standard shifter. The ebrake is the same as the one you got but black as well.
You can get the alm/leather stuff from the dealer, or gert, but it's expensive!

Thanks guys. I gather what I have in my C2 is the stock ****/boot from a C4 and that the standard black brake handle was paired with it. The brake handle from Gert is a very nice piece but I prefer just a touch of aluminum. If Porsche does not make such a part, I will go with the standard black one. Anyone have a spare?

Stealth.... Your mods look great with an all black interior. I just don't think they work as well in my cashmere/black.

They do make it in cashmere. I just really like the feel of the shifter better then the stock one.
