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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am the relatively new owner of a 2002 996 Cabriolet and so far I love the car and I am very excited to get it out of storage once the Western NY weather finally decides it wants to stay warm. The car is not a show car but so far it is perfect for me. The biggest issue with the car right now is someone replaced the radio with a Jenson VX3024 Double DIN model. While it works fine, it was poorly installed. The faceplate is ill-fitted. It looks cheap and out of place. For right now, I would like to simply replace the faceplate/surround. Anyone have a suggestion on where to get a properly fitting surround for this model of radio. Thanks Dennis
