I have info and measurements from Jeffs website for the centre console,I would prefer to have the so called "deposit box''.
Anyone have a similar measurement plan or do I just build the main section off Jeffs plan and go from there?.
I want it to look/fit as close to original as possible,thanks.

...Or were you talking about the plastic center section underneath the center cushion.

The "deposit box", as Porsche marketing called it, was/is a compartment from the lower center of the dashboard on early 914's to the floor. It was affixed top and bottom with stainless hardware, carpeted on the sides, a vinyl floor and that was it. Was meant to hold the deitris of your commute.

Some places who should know better (Auto Atlanta) will attempt to make you believe that it was the center console on later year 914s. They are (typically) incorrect. There's a huge difference between a "deposit box" and a "console". Don't be fooled by the fools!
