FYI

The door panels on your 986 are standard,there is a FULL LEATHER option....but you have the standard ones.

I'm just curious,did you find out why your Boxster was overheating at the track? Dirty radiators? Failing oil cooler? Blown coolant tank?

They are FULL leather. The stiched seam is the give away that they are full leather. Vinyl does not have the seam. I've had the door panels in my hands and can assure you they are leather.

So far I know the radiators were filthy and they are being cleaned out this week. Other parts of the system seem to be OK, but a little more trouble shooting to do. I also suspect that the tight mesh covers that were over the openings in the bumper do not let enough air in for track work. I'll have it out again this weekend in 92 degree weather to try again.

Here is a picture showing the seam. All cars have a seam on the airbag but the full leather has an additional seam above that running from the door handle to the edge of the door.

Interesting. I'll have to compare mine tonight to them and see how much money is left in the bank account. Thanks for the info.



Update; I see the difference between your doors and the standard ones now.

The best price on Ebay is showing $200 plus $35 shipping per door for vinyl. I could not find a leather example.

How does $425 shipped for the pair sound? Cheaper than Ebay and leather instead of vinyl! Pictures available on Monday if you are interested.

Has anyone tried to remove them? I'm sure they are just glued on, not sure if you can pry them off without bending the metal.

The car also has a full leather interior if anyone want to upgrade their door panels or other dash pieces (lower section of the dash only, I need the rest).
i believe they are held on by double sided tapes.. if you get it off, how much do you want for it?

They are now off the car, it was very easy as the 10 year old adhesive had nothing left. How does $25 including shipping sound?

Here are the panels. I could not identify the proper hardware that holds the door pull on so you would have to reuse the one you have. Same for the little plastic piece near the door opener. As a result I'll only ask $400 for the pair.

The carpet was grey. I think the only pieces I still have is the insulated piece that goes over the engine and a couple of carpeted trim pieces.

I have a few black carpet mats, namely the floor mats and the mat for the trunk. I'll probably keep the floor mats since my wife has a 911 that they fit and they are in pretty good condition. I can part with the trunk mats. Do you need them?
