I've been asked to undertake a complete PCM and lower centre console delete on an early 996.2.
So remove this early 2000's tech fest excess/extravaganza :
and replace it with the simplicity of this arrangement :
using these parts :
So to the questions ...
i. Am I right in thinking the loom for the HVAC control can be re-routed from it's position in the lower centre console, back to its "usual" position above where the radio would normally be fitted in the dash, without the need to be extended ?
ii. Does relocating the HVAC control/display unit require the use of two of these brackets to secure it in the revised dash insert/surround ?
A look at the image of the revised dash insert posted above/earlier in this post, and this image of the HVAC control/display below from The Bay of E, would tend to indicate they're not needed as the unit has two lugs which the screw heads will secure when screwed into the revised dash insert/surround :
Any tips/advice on the conversion gratefully received :thumb:
