Was thumbing thru a Porsche mag briefly the other day while waiting to pick up my 996 and spotted an ad for a company that sells chips/switches that allow you to raise/lower your roof while driving. Also allow you to have the rear windows up while driving with the hood down. I think they only let you raise lower the hood at below 25mph, otherwise could get interesting. Anyone had this done? Any top tips or good websites/manufacturers to check out? Thanks for any help, Josh Migration info. Legacy thread was 68837

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.

Mine is an 04 and will let me raise and lower the roof up to 30 mph, but still not have the rear windows up....but to be fair most of the time alll the windows are down for maximum posing value

I may be wrong here but i think that you can actually snap off one of the metal connectors on the relevant relay which will allow you to lower the roof while driving. Like I said though, I could be wrong. Migration info. Legacy thread was 68929

The cabs from 2003 onwards allow you to lower the roof while driving as standard already. I have thought about the chip in mine, certainly haven't heard of anyone having problems with them. Migration info. Legacy thread was 69097

The other handy feature is this module lets you do a one touch open/close on the roof instead of keeping the button pressed. Migration info. Legacy thread was 69108
