Correction: After the shift boot is re-installed, re-install the leather panels, then the carpet panels. The steps are available at the start of the video. First the leather panels go back in the way they came out, then the carpet panels.
There are other center console removal videos where they are able to do it without needing to remove the PCM, the climate controls or the section of buttons below that.
Totally valid approach and thanks for sharing. The climate controls and buttons were removed to remove the storage bin without bending its tab down. You can remove the bin without removing the items above if you’re willing to bend your storage bin a bit. Taking out the climate controls and spoiler buttons takes 30 seconds or less.
Thanks for this! Could you do videos on this car for how to remove the dash vents and entire dashboard? Nobody anywhere on the internet has ever done a video on this.
@RuslanVideoFilms it's coo. No rush. I'm refinishing my stock black interior to terracotta and have gotten about as far as I'm able based on videos available on line. There are zero content related to 987 dashboard breakdown and replacement. Only thing I could find is a manual for Porsche mechanics but that dosnt describe specifics like what angles to pull from to avoid snapping plastic clips etc. Seeing as its a $1K to $4K part I want to make absolutely certain I get it right.
My ‘07 997 turbo tiptronic center console where the emergency brake and center storage console is rattles (not the center console where the stereo & climate controls are) its like all plastic. Any idea what it is or what to do? Thank you

Within twenty seconds I realized this is the video I needed. Thank you!
yw! thanks for checking out my channel 💪🙏
By far the best video on how to do this from beginning to end.
Your words. Too kind they are. Appreciate it.
Thanks for this guide. I'm putting a short-shift kit into my Cayman S this weekend and this has helped massively. Cheers
Glad it helped. Which short shift kit?
thanks for doing this. I really appreciate it. It helped me with my installation of new shift cables cheers and keep up the good work.
You’re welcome. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Glad it helped.

Awesome work done!! btw, how did you add the ipod/aux board?
Was a factory option when I purchased the car

Wouldn't put it past loose wiring or a broken plastic retainer inside. Only way is to take a peek ;)
@@RuslanVideoFilms thanks I made a video of what it was and how I fixed it.
how do you remove just the center console lid?

Where did you connect the USB cables, I saw you installed them in the 12 volt but where do they connect?
To the new head unit, installation shown here:
