I am very sad to part with this, but the old girl needs to raise some money in to upgrade her engine.

This is a close second favorite upgrade to my carbon fiber steering wheel. Along with better wheels and suspension this is one of my favorite upgrades on my 1999 996. The shift **** is much fatter and sturdier than stock. It is much heavier than stock and feels more solid in your hand. I’m also hooked to carbon fiber. This is a must have if you are too (or just want a little more bling).

My car’s interior is metropole blue. The black wheel leather works fine with that color, and I am guessing it would work well with other interior colors as well.

Installation is very simple if you have some muscle. Assuming you have a stock shifter, simply unclip the leather boot from the center console (gently pry up from underneath using a butter knife wrapped in a t-shirt). Then just grab the **** with both hands and pull up. It takes some strength, and be sure not to bonk yourself in the head. The new **** slides over the shift lever. Then it secures with the allen bolt. Then clip the leather boot and frame into the center console.

According to PET, the shift **** frame P/N 99655265501 will fit any 6 speed manual Boxster, 996, 996 Turbo, or 996 GT3 from 1997-2004. Please consult Porsche documentation for fitment information if you are not sure.

Your purchase includes:

P/N 996424981188yr black carbon aluminum leather shift **** which retails for $629.03

$240 (firm) for the shift ****. It is in superb condition aside from normal wear on the aluminum face.

SHIPPING & HANDLING POLICY
FREE USPS Priority shipping and handling to ship this item USA addresses only.
For ALL other shipping methods or destinations you will need to pay the entire shipping cost, please inquire with your shipping address to get a shipping quote (International) – in these cases you will be required to pay for the entire shipping cost. USPS Priority takes 2-4 business days in transit depending on your location. The **** will ship within 24 hours of full payment. A delivery confirmation number will be sent to you via email when the item ships. I ship extremely fast, sometimes within hours of having received payment. Please inquire about other shipping methods before bidding. I reserve the right to substitute shipping methods, for example FedEx or even hand carry if you live close enough.

International customers, please inquire with your mailing address if you are SERIOUSLY interested (please don’t spin my wheels unless you are really interested because it takes time and effort to work out the logistics). I will ship internationally if you pay for the shipping which varies drastically based on method and destination. Upon delivery you may also be responsible to pay duties, taxes, customs, or other fees which your country requires for import of used automotive parts.

RETURN/REFUND POLICY

Since this is equivalent to a "garage sale" item, I do not collect tax, even for California sales. However you may be responsible to pay use tax depending on where you live.
