I was a big BMW fan and wwhen I owned my car i tried to reto-fit any option that I could. I bought it pretty loaded but after a few years of owning it, I started to add some options I didn't purchase at the begining. My question here, has anyone done this to your Cayenne and if so what options???

 

REALLY depends on the option you are talking about.

Some of the stuff is near impossible to find used or at a reasonable price.

Any idea on what things you want?


I would love to find the rear locking differential for off road use.

GTS wing.

The Nav systems would be nice to update but even used they cost more than a nice aftermarket set up.

 

rear valences, exhaust tips, wheels, and roof racks are all that I have found on here for less than 150 from members.......some random body pieces can be found on ebay with luck.....ask roxxboxxx........

keep your ears out to body shops too and dealers who sometimes get take off wheels and sell closer to beta model wheels for cheap.

The internal guts, engine, lights......whew expensive and questionable if you can get to work........or just above my paygrade...

 

I would like to do the smokers package. I wish mine had the 2x 12volt outlets up front on the passanger side. I am still new with my CTT some still learning whats out there, but that would be my first thing i would like to do.

 

you should have the 2 12 v deep up under the passenger side and the back left corner....

The smokers package was just the ashtray I thought.........

 

I have two in the very back cargo area and maybe one in the center for the back seat; however, the only outlet up front is in the "smoker package" aka ashtray......

 

You may want to check again. I didn't think I had them either after a quick look. I looked again and stuck my head down there and found them. They are way up there in the upper left hand corner.

 

Im pretty sure cayennes came standard with 2 up front, 1 back of center console and 1 in back.........I didnt find mine until 2 years ago.

Its your birthday, go look again.......

 

The Pepper is currently at the dealer, but will look tomorrow when I pick it up. I will honestly be suprised if they are there.... however I like suprises!!

 

Good luck. I know I was pleasantly surprised when I found them.

 

and also, thats about the same area where you change your pollen filter......thats when I found mine

 

So, did you find them?

 

I totally forgot to look.... been a busy week. I will look in the morning and update with results. Thanks for the remind!

 

Ahhh bro - You mean FACTORY options that did not come on your build.

Hmmmmm - that's tough as most C's major upgrades are big deals like:

> Phone over PCM
> Air Suspension
> "S" package on the turbo
> Rear comfort package (zoned air and heat for the back seats)

I have looked into all of those for my C and a retrofit is a big fat no-go.

Some of the factory options that you can easily address are:

> Alumi-look grills
> Interior trim (trim, wheel, shifter)
> Skirts, rear valance and tips
> Mud Flaps (UGG - dont!)
> Caliper appearance (go red over stock silver)
> Roof racks (love my rails)
> Factory rear window shades ( you can go 2 routes with that option)
> Rear cargo options (nets, hold downs, beverage cooler)
> Factory sport exhaust (although the after market stuff is better)
> Clear market lenses (that's a MUST)

Me personally - go for the easy and cheap stuff first just to get you used to hacking up your Porsche.

1. ALL LED interior lights - looks amazing (see my pic below)
2. Clear marker lenses (snag em from bumperplugs.com)
3. Clear turn signal bulbs so that your headlights don't look like fried eggs.

All that will cost you less then $200.

Here is my interior with LEDs:

 

Well As you guys said!!!!! I found them... and yes they are up there. Who knew 2 12volt outlets would be so well hidden.. And in my defence the stupid rubber floor mat was stuck on it so I had to pull the mat back and they it was...
