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 1Original post

Hi, Has anyone attempted to remove the panel on the driver's side of the center console in a 981C? This the longish panel that sits against the center console right next to the seat bottom. There is a FAQ somewhere for doing this exact thing on the 987 but the panels are quite different between generations. The panel appears to be held in by a series of snap-in tabs. The only reason I think this is the rear most tab doesn't seem to want to engage, leaving a bit of a gap between the panel and the console. If it is a tab that won't engage, is there a way of expanding the receiving latch to hold the tab? Any experience on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! DG

POST 2Original post

I know for sure that right panel just snaps in. Because you need to unsnap it to install my Sunglass Holster. I don't see how it can be any different on driver's side.

POST 3Original post

Thanks, I thought so. Do you have any advice to deal with snaps that don't hold snuggly?

POST 4Original post

No. I usnapped/snapped the passenger panel more than dozen of times during test-fitting - and mine snaps just right every time. May be wrapping the male part with some electric tape? The easiest way for you would be taking it to the dealer. If the snap is defective - they'll order you a new panel.
