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 have an 03 996 with black regular interior and am looking for full leather door panels but apparently there are several part numbers out there depending on the year of 996. Has anyone swapped door panels from different year 996s and do they all fit? They all look the same, I don't know why Porsche changed the part numbers every couple of years. Thanks

POST 2Original post

call a dealer and give them your VIN...they'll look it up....did that for my red belts

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks but i know what is correct for my 03, my question is does a door panel from a 99 fit an 03 for example?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was hoping someone has swapped panels from 996.1 to 996.2 or back. I hesitate to buy a set and then find out the mounting holes or something else not apparent has changed. Externally they look identical but they have different part numbers.

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