If so, for right hand drive cars, the part number from PET is:

Part Number Description Price
945552429001DB strip for switches £19.48

Call Exeter Porsche and they'll post it out to you. Check the colour though!

HTH,

Jim.

I have both sides if you need them £10 to your door.

The only thing you need to watch with new ones from Porsche are that they stick out like a sore thumb, after all they are brand new and not 20 odd + years old and faded

I replaced the clock surround section and it looked awful..........so I replaced the lot :D

Ken,

PM sent, both parts can be the way to you Wednesday.

I used to have mine painted silver, but personally after a couple of years found it too much in "my face" after buying a complete new set from OPC and fitting as they did not seem to match in with everything else I decided to paint them body colour.

Hi,

All the pieces were painted by the bodyshop that resprayed the car, you should be able see in the pics that the window switch bezels as well as the center console surround are painted to match.

The armrest is leather, slightly higher than the original (which is a lot better) and I bought this off ebay.

You need plasticizer for the paint or it will flake off. It costs more than the paint. best done at the same time as the spoiler as that needs it too.
