For the front speakers you might be able to find a dual voice coil speaker the right size, failing that maybe a bracket hidden inside holding two 3 inch units behind centre grill, like out of a golf or 996 dash.
Jon, since it's an early car, it might be kind of scary, but you could put speakers in the front doors like the 944 and later 924's and 924S. Would be tough to cut into those beautiful Pasha door panels.
The problem with my doors is not so much me cutting into the door cards, the metal in the early doors are actually different and I would have to cut into the metal as well. Have a look here: instagram.com/p/CxSyhB3oTBK/?img_index=1. Cutting into the metal will weaken the structure of the door. What I should have done was install 944 doors, but it's too late for that now.
@@GarageBiljonJon, another potential option might be to get the 968 hi -fi option door pocket assembly and use those speakers. Other than a small cut for the tweeters, shouldn't require any door frame modification.
It was getting really tough to work on two projects at the same time, so the 968 went on the back burner while I completed the Safari. But I have already resumed work on the 968 and a video will be apearing shortly.
Awesome job Johann! Looking forward to seeing it in real life soon.
Thank you Giovanni!
Quality work an everything. I wish you were my PO
Thank you! Just buy this one and then I can be you previous owner :)
I greatly appreciate your attention to detail. Very nice build! I hope to see more of this car soon. Have a wonderful 2024!
Thank you very much Tim!
Nice job. Thanks!
Thank you!
Great Job ! Car looks amazing
Thank you very much!
Well done! Love it. I had the SQR46 in my 968 but just upgraded to the newer one as it plays FLAC files but the 46 is great
Good to hear, I have the Frankfurt version for my 968. Now that the work on the Safari is mostly done, I can pick,up the thread on the 968 again.
Needs a Rothmans livery! Looks awesome 💪
Oh, I thought about it, more than once! But it would always be derivative as there is an epic 944 Safari with Rothmans livery in the US.
Very nice job Johann 👌🏻💪🏻
Thank you very much!
Great job, looks beautiful!
Thank you very much!
👍👍👍

Excellent advice, I will see what I can find!

Great job! 👍 Very beautiful. Where’s your Tudor Pelagos watch? 😂
Thank you Kai! I usually take the Pelagos off, but sometimes forget I have it on but glad you like it :)
Nice Johann.
Did you have the same problems with the dash as I had? For example the pins of the glove compartment.
No, swaping the lids on mine was super simple, but I really struggled to get the alignment right. I ended up having to modify the latch mechanism.
Do you happen to know the part # for the glove box cover? I also ordered a new dash from Porsche but I hate the original glove box cover
I do, you want to order 477 857 123. Prepare yourself, this is going to hurt.
Hi. what's up with your 968?
It was getting really tough to work on two projects at the same time, so the 968 went on the back burner while I completed the Safari. But I have already resumed work on the 968 and a video will be apearing shortly.
I’m looking to purchase a Safari. If you decide to sell it let me know 👍
I could be tempted to sell her, but It will have to be a very serious offer. If you are serious we can exchange details.
