Interior colour - 993 C2 Cabriolet 1997

Personally I think grey and blue go well together, but I don't like the fact that Porsche colour the steering wheel - I think it should be black to match the black dials/radio bar etc

ORIGINAL: Muzzer911
I am interested in the above car but have a small query. The dash is blue but the rest of the interior is grey. I have never seen or heard of this before. Advices please.
That's exactly the same colour as my interior, too. This is not an unusual combination - you see it on cars advertised for sale, from time to time. Usually on Blue cars, though I await to be proved wrong ...
Nothing to worry about. I would concentrate on checking out the rest of the car ! I have to say it looks pretty scruffy from what I can see in the picture [&:].
No airconditioning fitted (that's a bit of a guess - but notice the single button on left of heater unit)

Same colour as mine.
Think you will find that they are Cobalt Blue and Marble Grey. Quite a common combination.
If you buy the car and want to tidy up the leather I used the leather dyes from Dynamix. They advertise in the Porsche mags and have a web site. Brought all of my leather up like new including the seats, gear knob, handbrake and the steering wheel.

anyone know how difficult it is to remove a dashboard cover,
i really don't like the blue,[
] so wanted to change it for black,
or take it out and colour it black.

door cards etc. in blue, leater seats in blue.

Exterior is Polar silver + blue roof.
Thanks for any hints

Did this on my 3.2 without too much bother..
From memory [8|]
There a fixings at each end, covered by the black end plates on the top cover itself.
There are also a number of 10mm nuts.. you can access these by removing the center air vents.
The air vent itself hooks in at the bottom and can be removed by releasing the 2 lugs visible in the vent at the top and rotating the vents and surround out..
Or something along like that..
May have been more 10mm nuts which I had to get too from inside the boot.. can't remeber sorry, although i'm sure someone with a better memory can tell you.
