switch covers / blanks for dashboard
I'm trying to find covers / blanking plates for those small switches in the dashboard between the gauges.
Guess that in an earlier life they were for the headlight washers...? Anyway, I don't use them anymore so I want them blanked, but couldn't find the parts around. Ideas ? |

No, I have the same issue. The thing is, I don't know of any plugs that would fit the rectangular holes. When a 911 was built without the switches, they just didn't cut out the holes in the vinyl that was glued to the dash. I doubt Porsche made plugs to fill these holes. My plan is to remove the vinyl and replace it with leather, as I am redoing the interior in my car anyway.

Makes sense, but my car doesn't have the vinyl, just black painted metal (which I like)... guess, back in 74 it was the way.

Ahh, I never realized that. That means, there may have been a plug after all. I did a little digging in PET and cam up with 911.552.469.00. Maybe this is the plug you need? They are cheap, so it wouldn't cost much to try one.

Yes, this is the one.
I recognize it as my car came to me with a non working switch and a cover like those After a recent rebuild one got lost... |
