I've had some of these made so you can finally sort out that annoying broken trip or dimmer knob on your 996!

This is for the the shafts only. Should you need the knobs themselves Porsche will supply these in pairs, The part number is 99664191100.

Porsche produce the spare knobs themselves but sadly it's the shaft that the knobs sit on that snap. Porsche do not make this part which means the only option you have is an entire new set of instruments.

These reproductions are based on the original Porsche item but manufactured in a much more flexible material rather than the brittle plastic of the originals which will prevent any further breakages.

There is a you tube video showing the DIY installation process

Awesome! One of mine was broken when I bought the car. The previous owner had tried to fix it........ with Blue Tack!! Like you say, Porsche only sell the knobs, so I ended up having to find a used cluster to take apart. These would've been a life saver.
