It looks as if it would make a small space, even smaller.
How could it be a 5 minute install. What did upon do about the seat belts? And the heater controls?

can you even open the ashtray anymore with this contraption? I don't smoke cigs, but my DROID fits perfectly in mine when I have it down, like a modern-day GPS (which is what I use my phone for while in the car)

szyzgy the majority of the people here rip those out to save weight and un clutter the look. Yours looks good for what it is. Your car.

Looks nice but the last thing I bought from better Bodies were my 993 style mirrors and one fell apart the first day I had it out on the track. Their response was basically nonexistent...

Wow tough crowd, I was just trying to pass on a good product that I liked, and that is made very well, Ya, no cup holders, it must only weighs 7 to 10 pounds, I didn't worry about the weight (2698 loaded), I have enough hp(428 fwhp) to push the extra pounds

Burn the fire.

Very nice and clean addition... Not for my car, though. Less is more (for me). YMMV.

Looks perfectly fine to me...I mean , you have forward dated your 911 after all
![]() As you say , power to weight ratio isn't going to be affected!

After 21 years of ownership, I been though my stages of Drag racing ,Autocross, DE's and instructing now I just want to enjoy the ride with some comfort, even with 935/RSR coil overs susp, I must admit that I still track it at list once a year , at the old age of 43, I need to cut back so relax and enjoy your Porsche.
[/I] Agreed.... I found that I finally got tired of my track only rattle can version when I realized that I was only driving it to DE's or Porsche runs. I decided to put the car back to full street, complete will pwr windows, Recaros, complete new interior and even dynamax with a stereo. I even ditched the Viper green for a more sophisticated toned down 2 stage charcoal gray. I really want to drive the car to more places than Rennspeed and DE's. ![]() ![]()

I've got the same center console. Does your calf hit the side of it ? Can you take a shot of it straight on from the back seat forward. I'm wondering if there is a way to tweak it to get more room.

I like that you moved the switches on to the panel, is the the holder that is where the radio use to be out of a 944, I like that idea , except that I would put it on the console in my car, great Idea !!
Thanks for sharing Helio
