I am looking for either the OEM part numbers or a VIN number for a 997 with
1) Black Alcantara Visors
2) WITH OUT the airbag warning stickers.
I have been looking for some time and can only find the OEM with the airbag stickers.
Thank you
Rudy

US regulatory requirement ?
ROW does not have it

You might check with Suncoast. They sell the leather visors without the US warning labels.

2) WITHOUT the airbag warning stickers.

That is what Black trim tape is for, or Black Plasti-dip is for.

Yes, all cars in the USA are required to be fitted with these stickers from the factory. But like your bed mattress, your can remove the tags or in this case install visors with out stickers or whatever you want if your are the end user.

Someone out there has this option on there car and I would really like to hear from them.

I spent 6 hours yesterday looking at used cars on the Porsche web page that are for sale in UK and Australia hoping that one has the Alcantara visors. I looked at over 300 cars..... it was fun for about 35 cars and by 80 cars the fun was over as this has now become a quest!

HELP !

Find a quality upholster - I'm sure they could wrap your existing visors in alcantara for less than buying new ones. Someone recently did this on the forum but i don't remember who. Maybe one of the custom steering wheel shops could do it too.

Well, after a ton of time researching and hunting I found a German 997 that came with the black Alcantara visors. I was able to get the VIN and Laurie at Suncoast was able to get them on order for me. Very Happy!!

Will do. 2-5 month delivery quoted though.

Would it be OK to share the cost to purchase these?

Probably close to what leather costs - $1,300+
