WP0ZZZ Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Which RS-style interior door panels would you recommend? Design911 offers two options costing around 400 quid. Quality does not look spectacular on their photos although it's hard to judge. If you have seen them in person, are they alright?

I'm not really looking for a bespoke interior. I would just like a set of RS-like door cards which look and work ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple things like the handles look far nicer and more robust than those D911 ones. If I recall correctly the Appbiz handles are original Porsche 964RS ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Type911 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Genuine Porsche RS door handles are over £600 a pair plus VAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I used App Biz panel years ago and did my own. Easy peasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris T Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I bought plain hardboard panels from southbound (refreshingly inexpensive) and sourced the foam, vinyl, handles etc elsewhere. Very easy DIY job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strosek34 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I’ve had the group buy Appbiz ones in my car for years now, still as good as new, If I was doing another set I would make them myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJ Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 ditto as strosek, appbiz cards still going strong. Always wish I had got those 964 type handles though rather than the crappy plastic RS handles. Anyone know where I can source some for reasonable bucks? Do like that weaveboard doorcard that Longers linked to as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Type911 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 No, quite similar 964 993 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 You could make those with some bent metal covered with a bit of vinyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it depends on your fettling skills as how well they would come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Much nicer, paint them black https://www.aircooledaccessories.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=326 or added lightness and cheap as chips. https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p/universal-aluminium-door-handles-pair-ge115?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=ShoppingUK&utm_campaign=ShoppingUK&vat=on¤cy=GBP&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIspWG5ZKw7QIV2PhRCh0tJwuFEAQYAyABEgJ-3fD_BwE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris T Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 The drilled version is what I used. I then drilled the exterior handles. Look good to me and 'so what' to the factory original nutters..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJ Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 quite like those Merlin holed handles. Would they have same screw fixing centres though? So long since i took mine off i cant remember what they screw into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
