Hello all,
This last weekend, while I was cleaning my car's interior, I realized that I do not really like the lower center console of it. I think I have seen someone done this before.
I basically want to remove the bottom (big white circle on the pic) part and move the A/C control up top.... has anybody done this?
This should not pose any significant problem since that upper spot is where the controls normally reside (your car has those cup holders instead and that's why it's located below). All 996s have the same dash wiring harness (withthe exception of left or right hand drive differences) so I assume that the wires are long enough to reach either position. You would need to dissassemble a few pieces (radio, etc.) to get at everything and re-route the wiring to the top spot. Once that's done, you should have no problem removing the console.
Those cupholders are what is ruining the dash if you ask me! Damn! they are huge and really dominate the dash. Did all pre 02 US spec come with those? Can you have cupgolders and drive a manual transmission? Whats the point? In my car the ac controls are where the cupholders are, and the place where your ac is is a cubby hole.
Cupholders are for family cars not sports cars, you drive a Porsche with 2 hands on the wheel.
I stopped by Ruf in Dallas today and I was checking out one of their cars which has the center console removed... I really like the way it looks... so I am going to delete all the lower section...
