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.

17 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone have the diagram for the armrest assembly on the rear console? Mine broke on one side and it's not held together by a hinge; looks like straps.

POST 5Original post

I've considered this. Kinda spendy, but it seems well made, and raising that armrest wouldn't be a bad thing. http://www.birdautomotive.com/996.htm

It doesn't really look like a hinge. Didn't see a kit on pelicanparts.com - does anyone have a diagram from Porsche parts that I can magnify? I can't really see the part on the diagram that Mavthenav linked me to.

POST 7Original post

Easy install with the repair kit, do not need to remove the console to do it like they say. You will need a drill and a rivet gun. DO not let that scare you it is pretty easy. Do a search on here or sixspeed and someone has a great write up. Rivet gun on ebay was $9.00.
