Hi,

My 924 is currently missing the leather gear gaiter - it only has the rubber boot in place. My question is what colour leather would mine have been originally? My interior is the dark brown, but the gauge surrounds etc are black, so I'm inclined to go with black.

Also as an aside, when went on the console around the gaiter? All I have currently is something rough the PO put in place that simply sits and covers the console.

Cheers,
Gavin.

The dashboard, steering wheel, roof-liner, interior roof trim, int. door panels, center console, armrest, sunvisors and shifter cover should all be the same color. They're all the dark brown on mine except the int. door panels which are dk brown and tan. Around the shifter is a piece of tan carpet that matches the rest of the carpeting.

What color is your carpet? I've got a brand new OEM Porsche carpet that fits around the shifter that matches the saddle colored carpet (not the biege that was in the 944's). I also have the plastic snap-in ring that goes around the shifter to hold the leather boot in place. No leather boot though, sorry.

Both are for sale. PM if intersted.
