As with my other thread:

Today, took out my centre console. its got a butt ugly cutout for an aftermarket A/C system switch which has bugged me for ages.


here's the old 944 one (left) and 968 one side by side.


Swapped some bits around and made a complete one. had to use a 968 switch which adjusts the fog light level until I can get a switch blank that fits.


next was the HVAC controls. the plastic around the screw holes is brittle and falling to pieces. I'm also looking at swapping in the 968's factory A/C system anyway so in went the 968's one.

old; both; new




Also note if you compare the first pic to the one above, I swapped my hazard light switch to a red 968 one. The old one is hard to see when you want it in a hurry.

Next was seats. I had a pair of good 944 turbo seats from the 968. Was ready to fit them when i realised the seat belt receivers weren't mounted properly. They'll need machining to fix so i decided to refit my original ones. Damn things have 6 x 6mm hex bolts each so I got rained out halfway through and will have to do the pax seat tomorrow. (I recall my 932 having 4 x 10 mm bolts each)




Should I fit these 968 door cards? One side needs fixing up and the 10 speaker system was kept by the PO but I've been slowly collecting the pieces to redo it.


And these are the check lights on my '86 on start up.
