I already asked a couple of dealers/parts dept. You can only get that when you order your car.

Didn't I see a prior post regarding some"Exclusive" items are replacement only.
Maybe related to fact that factory doesn't want a bunch of returns on this cover as not matching color of original interior, especilly in Beige or Light colors. When car is built, I believe all leather accessories are cut from same run or cow or whatever they do.
Anyway that is one sweet cover.
BTW my Cab does not have that cute little pocket for whatchamacallits.

The 3D cam file of a 997 cab (see link below) also shows no open holder. Maybe you could slide a pack of smokes in it!

To correct myself,...I do indeed have the weird little bin!

I looked into getting the bin cover with logo (Option CPT) after the fact. I was told that if I could get a VIN for a car that has the option installed in the right color leather then they could then use that VIN to order a replacement for that car - telling Porsche that the car with the bin cover was damaged and they needed to replace that particlar part. I was also told that it could take from 2 weeks to 8 months and that they could not get a price until the part shipped . . . i.e. no refunds and no way to know how much until you are commited.

Yes, I have the little bin. It's apparently for the rear passengers - for whatever it is they would need such a compartment - smoking paraphernalia?
