911 Design Key Conversion Housing — 996 Carrera & 986 Boxster
There's the standard 996 key — and then there's this. The Porsche 911 Design Key is a factory-original alternative housing that transforms the look of your key with one unmistakable detail: a flashing illuminated "911" in red. This isn't an aftermarket gimmick — it's a genuine Porsche design that came straight from the factory Tequipment accessory catalog, and it's the kind of subtle, knowing touch that only a real enthusiast will notice and appreciate.
The conversion is a direct internal swap — no reprogramming, no dealer visit, no hassle. Simply transfer your existing key blade, circuit board, and small green immobilizer chip from your current housing into the new shell, and you're done. Everything electronic stays exactly the same. Only the look changes — and it changes for the better.
Important — Shell OnlyThis listing is for the 911 Design key housing only. Your existing electronic internals — circuit board, key blade, and immobilizer chip — are transferred from your current key into this new shell. No electronic components are included, and no reprogramming is required.
Compatibility NoteThe 911 Design key is only available for two-button remote configurations (central locking system and front trunk lid). Please confirm your current key has two buttons before ordering.
