Those are used seats from LA Porsche Dismantler - the entire interior came from them.

One bonus: under the passenger seat, I discovered receipts that indicate I have <7K miles on a new clutch and accumulator... Lucky blind purchase.

fitted the rennline grill kit today. I will post more pics of the completed job back on the car, need some spit and polish first. The kit was relatively easy to install, just time consuming refitting on my own, really needs two pairs of hands.


the round whole you see holds a temp sensor (I think thats what it is) what a pain to get back in place.

Put the Rennline grill kit in mine as part of the radiator swap
as stated, not that difficult
had to cut access holes in mine for laser diffusers which made it a little harder

Jonathan and Chris from ECS Tuning have been awesome to deal with and have made it right.
Sounds like a product glitch and should not be a future issue...
Cheers,
Rob

On Rennline's site I only see grills for the GT2? Do they offer the 996TT grills somewhere else?? Thanks in advance.

The pictures are of a 997 but the actual grills are for a 996 C4S and Turbo. Read the description above the photo.

I got mine from design911.co.uk , who as always provide an excellent service, they do a number of brands. Agree the rennline photos are misleading, but Carlo mentioned what you get is for the 996 turbo.

I'm thinking of making my own. This site has a good selection of mesh styles. http://www.customcargrills.com/Diamond-Grill-Mesh.asp
