How hard is it to replace the rear center console?
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.

Eric is the man. I broke my center console lid and he hooked me up with this carbon one. Great price, perfect fitment, high quality carbon fiber. If you need interior tid bits...this is your man. From one business person to another, this guy is dialed!
Eric's the man, isn't he?
Just placed an order with him last week and emailed him a VERY stupid question. He responded right away and with good cheer. Too bad they're all not like him!
Eric is solid, no doubt about that!
Dan, why is the driver's side "dummy" rear window button on the center console installed backwards?
The "bump" or raised portion of the button should be toward the front of the car.
eric is indeed the man when it comes to product and customer service (the frequently forgotten half of the equation). He is very patient with dumb questions.
Thanks Dan and gang.
On the weave, I believe what you are seeing is an aftermarket 'wrap' on Dan's console. On the factory consoles, our lids match up like this:
Eric,
I checked out your site again (my seal grey bumperplugs and clear sides are gone with the car), and it looked like you didn't yet have a lot for the 997. In particular, I was looking at painted pieces (like rear center console) and CF trim pieces. Do you expect to get them soon?
Yes, another vote for Eric @ bumperplugs. What great service. Ordered a custom painted GT3 emblem and it was delivered in record time. Thanks for your nice work.
I just want to bump this thread in appreciation for Eric.
I ordered a box of Rejex from him and a set of key door plugs. Not only did he give me the best deal ever, but the whole deal from order to shiping to receiving the goods took 4 days.....and I am in Liverpool, UK. I dont think my local Porsche shop could do that if hey tried! Well impressed.
Her's to you Eric. It was a pleasure doing business with you. Many thanks mate.
Glad the box arrived in one piece to the UK Bernie!
On the 997 stuff, Doug check the 'order' page. It's all there.
For the 997, we have quite a few goodies.
Rear Center Console (have had them since the model was introduced)
Interior door trim
Ignition surround
Seatbelt outlets
B&M Short Shifters
Clear Sidemarkers
And while there, check out our updated Gallery page. Some interesting 997/987/Cayman goodies there as well.
We have not yet rolled out as much CF for the 997, as there is a worldwide shortage of carbon due to the aerospace industry. But...we do have a one-off custom piece sitting on my desk. Can you tell what it is behind this wheel cap?
Eric - sorry, I didn't make myself very clear. I'm interested in the painted rear center console (which you do have), the carbon fiber pieces (which you don't have - I didn't know about the shortage), and possibly painted seat backs (I didn't see them, but I thought someone got them from you). The dealer has promised to supply clear side markers, but if not I'll order some from you in a few months.
How hard is it to replace the rear center console? How about seat backs? $379 is an attractive price for the console, but its worth something to have the dealer install it.
Console is pretty straightforward, and 90% of our customers do it themselves. 1 hour for the dealer, don't let 'em charge anything above it.
Hooks are coming soon....Porsche is hording them for some odd reason. We've had them on order for two months.
Painted seat backs...we can do them if the shells are sent to us disassembled. We've been doing 996 seatbacks for years. Email me anytime for more detail.
Carbon is coming!
Thanks.
i bought bumperplugs for my 745Li from him but never used them. ended up returning them months and months later. he accepted them without any problems. if i can buy anything from eric for my new 911, i will.
I've never bought anything from Eric, but I will say I've never heard anything remotely negative about Bumperplugs. It's all been very positive. When I'm in the market for any interior painted bits or CF, I know I will be able to get quality parts from him....
