    Re: Painted air bag cover and in dash DVD

    Hi OCEAN, those painted backrests of the sportseats, did they do that at the factory or was it "A Retrofit Job" done by some other company or a Porsche dealer ?? Is it easy to do afterwards ??
    Thanks.

    The rear center console looks aftermarket since I don't see the sand insert below the handbrake lever that Porsche installs. I would think that the airbag in the side of the new sport seat might make aftermarket painting a little more involved than previously.

    Porsche's name for the "automatic" gearbox available on the 911 from the late 60's to the early 70's.......

    The sportamatic was ahead of its time in many ways. It was a manual transmssion with an "automatic" clutch if I remember correctly. Movement of the gearshift lever (same as standard gearshift) engagaged the clutch without the need for depressing the third pedal (which was absent). There was a fully automatic mode as well I think. Not sure of the offering dates, 68/69 through 72/73?? Not a big hit.
