Default Leather A/C vents - anyone order them?

Did anyone order the leather air conditioning vents with the leather slats? On previous generations the stitching on all the vents was noticeable, but I’m not sure how the current gen looks. The configurator really doesn’t show much. Would love to see some photos.

I think they were a nice upgrade on the 991 because it got rid of the chrome vent surround. But since the 992 vents are all black anyway, I think it's much less noticeable now.

Both leather and stitching in 991.2. Excellent touch and makes the cabin space feel proper.

to each their own, but that is one of the silliest upgrades available.... similarly to the 'rear view mirror' in leather, or the 'fuse box cover holder' in leather....

On the 992 I agree with you. The 991 had much more prominent stitching.

On my 991 touring, it was a last minute option box tick... but glad I went with them. Each to own as you say but I think it finished off the interior nicely, particularly given exposed between leather top and bottom.. This time, I've ticked the extended leather and contrast stitch...... Went alllll the options Ill report back in a few months if a waste...!



991 touring / leather, black stitch and painted chalk slats.
