Car just needs a bit more TLC to be close to perfect. Can you guys suggest where I can get the best price on the following items?

-Tray/pocket below radio to replace current cassette holder (who listens to tapes anymore???)

-Cigarette lighter or cover for hole in dash

-Backseat release lever (passenger side)

-Carrera Logo for engine lid (use to have a GT3 badge, once removed...a few scratches were revealed underneath. Looking to put another badge on to cover sratches

-Oil filter

-Air Filter

-Black floormats (Driver's side is worn)

-Silver Shift knob and black boot (Current one is a bit scratched)

-Jack pad

-Black OEM mirror Bras

-Cupholders (for the wife's starbucks :biggulp: )

Thanks in advance!!

For all the OEM items .... including the tray to replace the cassette holder, I suggest you contact Jeff at Sunset Porsche. Sunset is a RennTech sponsor, and offers factory parts at cost + 15%, last time I checked. There is a link to Sunset on the home page. He is terrific to deal with, and will work via phone or email.

For your wife's cup holder .... if you are serious about the big gulp .... then the OEM holder that clips into the side air vent will not do. It is limited to a Coke can size cup, both height and width wise. My wife really likes the Ultimate Cup Holder, which mounts on the floor by her left foot. [http://www.ultimatecupholders.com/]. It requires no permanent attachement, and securely holds just about anything.

I got my jack pad on Ebay, in the Porsche parts section. Ditto for floor mats.

I have ordered parts from sunset. Thier pricing and service is good. I have an in dash cup holder that will fit in place of your cassete holder. I bought it for my 2000 996, but didn't realize I needed to have a slot where the cassette holder goes. Mine is filled with a Valentine one. If you want it i will be happy to sell it to you. I paid around 90 bucks for it from sunset and would sell it for that plus frieght. If you want it email me @ SDPJR@msn.com
