If you do order OEM leather parts, don't forget the installation charge( especially for dash and center console) By the time you add up everything, you might as well order the car with it. Also I am always leary of creating rattles after the tech. remove anything. John

Does anyone know if I can get a few of the pieces as loose parts and throw them on myself? The important bits to me are the sides of the center console (where your knees rest), and the top trim on the door. I could probably live without the rest.

Would I save money that way?

In answer to your question, you can get some of the parts new from Suncoast or most all of them used from one of the many Porsche dismanting companies who advertise on the internet.
