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.

a mate and i at the beginning of 2023 started the 3D print project for a GT3 console DELETE. This was because of wanting too retain the DBL DIN install and have the delete
so we spent a few months and got the console 3D printed, too our satisfaction . Thats the easy part

The prinary design engineering project been the custom MICRO HVAC unit. Designed too control all heating /cooling functions .
proof of concept has been achieved and we now start the design process too resolve the packaging of the unit . This is intended to fit into the remaining space in the horseshoe and work for all mk1&2 986 and 996 models
on a side note - needed a 996 cup splitter, so decided to print one

thoughts /interest let me know
cheers
standalone and controls all functions
we have proof of concept and we can control all heating and cooling functions with our unit, now developing/printing our own box to house everything
Again, another interesting project. What does this system do that the OEM climate control does not do?
That kind of looks like a STM32F103 board in the middle of that jungle.
Definitely interested. Subscribed. I've the PCCM+ dbl din and would like a console delete, I don't like the cramped cockpit. It's awesome that so much love is being shown to our 996s. Mines an "01 C2 6mt coupe, meridian metallic w Black interior.
its �repackaging� - enabling dbl din and GT3 console delete , while retaining HVAC on the dash
Retaining the factory HVAC UNIT , cannot install dbl din with a GT3 delete.
others have done work arounds like installing in the glove box - though jot an option with mk1�s in either 996 or 986
i have a mk2 my friend has a mk1 996
with my 97 boxster i ton�t have dbl din, as i like the layout as is. so just installing the �GT3� delete , which in reality was a boxster first option
Since you're doing all this to allow a double DIN HU with the console delete, did you give any consideration to just make a module like the iDatalink Maestro to control HVAC directly from the HU? Could be an even cleaner solution.
I'm doing a double-DIN up top, plus wanting two slots down below for HVAC and another interior accessory I'm working on, so I want to keep the middle console, but redesign it to complement the rest of the interior. I feel like a lot of people delete the middle console because it is so clearly an afterthought from the factory.
Look forward to seeing what you�re doing. However I think most people choose the delete because it, the console, limits legroom and there�s also the aesthetic, where the interior looks more like the �classic� air cooled . All good things
Interested, as my C4S console has been deleted, but this old guy really, really wants a rearview camera, so any solution involving a new head unit requires moving the HVAC. What does your console look like in the car?
