@Coopduc yes I only had few of those, and it sold out that morning. I have more on order, coming in 2 weeks.

Received mine today. It seems very well made. I'll do a test fit tomorrow and report back.

That’s really nice looking.

I think it would also be a great spot for a phone dock or 992 style cup holder.

I don't recall from when I installed my console delete, but is there space in there to make a phone holder?

There should be, the rear half has an airbag control module but I think there should be enough empty space forward for a little cubby. The airbag module would make me nervous about putting a drink holder there though.

yeah it would be neat to have a phone mount, not necessarily such that the phone is sitting up, but even just a pocket-ish thing I could drop it into would be pretty neat.

Here's how much room is available on the horizontal, had this pic laying around. I'm actually thinking there's not enough room, or at best it would be tilted downward but the phone would be sticking out decently far, phones are really big these days.

I would love to a relocation of the climate control so you can run a double din with a center console delete

If you have multiple cars that use it, it's better to buy the liter size.



Here are a couple of pics of my test fit.


This is with the new style VDO:









This is a VDO old style;










What might be an issue for some is that I don't see any way to wire it up without trimming some of the console area beneath the gauge (shown as the hatched area).
I'll get some better pics when I have it out of the garage.

You should be able to run a USB cable from a head unit under the delete panel and snake it back to the mount location, but I don’t see any issue with cutting a hole in the console delete. The 996.1 GT3 ClubSport had a kill switch there for the whole car.

I bought an 'under dash' single din pocket and was going to use the oem climate surround to do exactly this.

I was going to fit the PCCM+, but then heard mixed reviews on it and didn't proceed.

But it would have sat just under the dash still leaving the console delete feel to the car and the extra leg room.



That guage looks great mate. really great.

Could you link the under dash single DIN pocket? I'd love to see how it turned out
