Does the 981 Boxster and 981 Cayman share the same screen or are they different profiles?

It’s weird. I can’t find an answer to this when googling either.

I'm no parts expert but,,,,,

Boxster parts catalogue - https://www.porsche.com/all/media/pdf/originalpart...

Cayman parts catalogue - https://www.porsche.com/all/media/pdf/originalpart...

Search for windscreen - they list different part numbers.....

Best bet is to call you OPC and get them to state the part number needed

When you turn them on, I think they show the model on the screen for a few seconds, so that may explain the difference?

I thought the Boxster always had a shallower angle screen than the Cayman?

Same with the 986 vs 996, shorter screen in the Boxster.

Many thanks for your reply. That helps. I’d assumed they were the same. Cheers
