Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i am looking to change my 996 savannah to black. Is the 2003 porsche 911 interior door cards and seats the same fitting? as alway grateful for all your expertise

POST 2Original post

I'm not sure what you refer to in the title (997) but the door cards and seats from a 2003 996 should fit a pre-facelift car. The 2003 door cards will have the side airbag covers, whereas an early 996 might not have side airbags. They should fit OK though. The dash is different, as the later cars have a glove box. It can be fitted, with a bit of tweaking. In regard to your earlier question about retrofitting heated seats. If the new seats have the heating elements, it is fairly easy to connect them uo to swotches on the centre console. If you are thinking about fitting heating elements to you existing seats it is a lot more complicated, and probably not practical. If the original question was would the seats and door cards from a 997 fit the 996, then the answer is that the door cards won't (or at least it would be a huge amount of work) but the seats will physically fit - they have the same mounting points. The plugs for the electrics would need re-wiring though.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
