DC, I was thinking about adding this too, it definitely would add to the classy and sporty look of the interior. I think the US tequipment part number for sea blue 6 speed is 99704480070 and I'm pretty sure the combo is only $1,099, about 1/3 less than the UK Pounds1,500 pound-converted price!
Do you think these are designed differently for your right hand drive car? If you can confirm the US part is identical you might try emailing a US P dealer's parts department to check their price and see if they might order and ship it to you. If it's a match but they wont mail it to you I'd rather throw it on my card and ship it over and have you send me a check when you get it than seeing you pay triple!

The writing ("Porsche") on the handbrake is the other way round for RHD cars. They are written in such a way that the driver can read from left to right. Gear lever the same of course.

Don't happen to know a friendly US Porsche dealer whom I could contact to see if he will sell me the gearlever / handbrake kit, do you? Much appreciate your help.

Parts look sweet! And I was just admiring a Cobalt Cayman on the road yesterday, thinking what a great color, it's a shame 2 of the best colors, Cobalt and Seal, are now gone, but makes these cars more exclusive.
Glad you saved Pounds700, that's 77 cases of Becks her in the USA!!

Great I will be doing the same as you in a few month.
I am starting to buy nearly everything form the US, from CD's to sports accessories to Hi Fi stuff and other lectronics..... The price is always around 1/2 of what I would pay around here
The way we buy our goods is changing.....and will more and more!

At least if you order from the States "PORSCHE" will be reading the right way round on the handbrake.
