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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If my car has the smokers ashtray installed in the centre console, can I just swap it over with non-smokers version (picture below)?

POST 2Original post

Yes, straight swap. You can get a little rubber mat that fits in the base as well.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 2746067

Thank you. I've just placed an order for it. £38.11 with the rubber insert. I plan to have that whole centre part trimmed with alcantara at one point. The ashtray doesn't get used so this will be better.

POST 4Original post

There are £55 + from Porsche, have sourced a 3d jobbie?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I ordered it from Porsche High Wycombe. Whats a 3D jobbie?

POST 6Original post

I would love to swap my ash tray for one of these, but my interior is Boxster red. Has anyone successfully painted interior parts Boxster red? Where can the paint be bought?

POST 7Original post

Quotes source post: 2746077

Probably the best/cheapest option to go OPC for this. I just picked up a centre console cubby tray replacement for the redundant CD centre console from Porche High Wycombe today... circa £55 inc VAT, From D911 nearer £80.

POST 8Original post

Does anyone happen to have the part number for the rubber insert, please? I can’t seem to find it on the diagram.

POST 9Original post

Quotes source post: 2746077

I fear you will be disappointed when it shows, no way it will be the correct parts for that money I thought maybe someone was 3D printing it for you

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source posts: 2746086, 2746134

Do you have pictures of the cubby tray that you could share? I prefer the OEM route.

POST 12Original post

I went the non OEM 3d printed route but the quality is as good as original and much more practical without the blank switches. It was more expensive though and no insert

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 2746180

The no insert and the price put me off. However its definitely more practical.

POST 15Original post

I'm away at the moment. I'll take a photo and post it at the weekend.
