Genuine Porsche 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 Only This 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 Note The 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.

Nice bling

I found the OEM 996 plastic key heads “janky” looking and would look worn rather quickly or the crest falls off. Although pricey at over a hundred bucks, this is a fun and really cool looking upgrade. Easy to swap out and well made. Love making the 911 logo flash! Works with one button versions also. Buy.
Worked on my 1-button 2000 996 C2

Amazing key fob, adds more sophistication to the car as a whole. It says that it doesn't fit the MK1 cars however my 1 button lock/unlock remote works great, obviously the trunk release has no function but that's fine. Wish the price was a little more inline with what your getting but all in all its a great upgrade.
Great upgrade
5 out of 5 stars.

Great upgrade over dated black rubber key look. Took me about 5 minutes to transfer over the "guts".
Excellent Key Design

I bought this Design key a few days ago from Suncoast. The swappng of the blade , circuit and tic tac were not difficult but required attention as its a delicate job. The Design Key looks superb far better that the 997 keys or any other Porsche Key i have seen anyway. The 911 LED is a great details and it is far better by all accounts than the standard 996 Key

Porsche Parts Warranty Information — Suncoast Porsche

Understanding your warranty coverage is important. Below is a complete overview of warranty terms for Genuine Porsche OEM parts, aftermarket parts, and closeout items purchased from Suncoast Porsche and SuncoastParts.com.

Warranty Coverage by Product Type

Genuine Porsche OEM Parts — 2-Year Warranty

All Genuine Porsche OEM parts purchased from Suncoast Porsche or SuncoastParts.com come with a 2-year, unlimited mileage, parts-only warranty beginning on the date of purchase.

If your parts are installed at an authorized Porsche Service Center, both parts and labor warranty coverage may apply if the part is deemed defective within the 2-year warranty period. Coverage varies by location — please check with your local Porsche dealer prior to installation to confirm their specific warranty participation, as each Porsche Center is independently owned and operated.

Important warranty notes for online purchases:

  • Labor, diagnostic, and installation fees are not covered when parts are purchased online from SuncoastParts.com or Suncoast Porsche, unless the parts are installed by an authorized Porsche Service Center
  • Warranty claims must be processed in person at an authorized Porsche Service Center
  • Warranty service is honored at any authorized Porsche dealer in the United States, however some dealers may decline warranty claims for parts purchased online or from another dealership — always verify with your local dealer before installation
  • If a warranty claim is approved and the part was not installed by a Porsche Service Center, installation of the replacement part remains the customer's responsibility
  • Suncoast Porsche and SuncoastParts.com are not liable for any diagnostic, labor, or installation fees charged by another Porsche Service Center

Aftermarket & Performance Parts

Warranty coverage for aftermarket and performance parts varies by manufacturer. Most carry a 1-year limited warranty. Contact us for specific warranty details on any aftermarket product. Please note that diagnostic time and labor costs for warranty replacements are not covered.

Take-Off & Closeout Parts

All take-off and closeout parts are sold as-is with no warranty and are not eligible for return. Pricing on these items reflects their as-is condition.

What This Warranty Does Not Cover

The following situations and conditions are explicitly excluded from warranty coverage:

  • Improper Installation or Misuse — Damage resulting from incorrect installation, negligence, unauthorized alteration, or accident. This includes any use in racing, competition, or motorsport applications
  • Lack of Proper Maintenance — Damage caused by failure to follow the vehicle's recommended Maintenance Schedule, or failure to use the correct fluids, fuel, oil, or lubricants as specified in the Owner's Manual. Proof of proper maintenance is the owner's responsibility — retain all service receipts in case questions arise
  • Consequential or Economic Losses — Towing fees, rental vehicles, loss of use, loss of time, inconvenience, or any other indirect economic losses
  • Vehicles Outside the USA & Canada — Parts installed on vehicles registered or primarily operated outside of the United States or Canada are not covered under this warranty

How to Obtain Warranty Service

Installed by an Authorized Porsche Dealer

If your parts were originally installed by an authorized Porsche dealer, warranty repairs may be performed by that same dealer or any other authorized Porsche Service Center in the United States. Please allow a reasonable timeframe for repairs after delivering your vehicle to the dealership.

Installed by an Independent Repair Shop

Please be aware: All warranty claims must be inspected, performed, and documented by factory-trained Porsche technicians at an authorized Porsche dealership. Work performed at an independent repair shop does not qualify for warranty consideration. If warranty coverage is a priority, we strongly recommend having your parts installed at an authorized Porsche Service Center.

Documentation Requirements for Warranty Claims

To process a warranty claim, the servicing Porsche dealer will require:

  • Your original sales receipt or order confirmation from SuncoastParts.com or Suncoast Porsche
  • A completed warranty certificate
  • Proof of proper vehicle maintenance history (if applicable)

Suncoast Porsche retains sales records on file for two years. If you need a copy of your receipt, contact us and we will provide it promptly.

Additional Warranty Terms & Legal Disclaimers

This warranty provides you with specific legal rights. You may also have additional rights that vary by state.

Porsche does not authorize any individual or organization to create additional obligations or liabilities beyond those stated in this warranty. Any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose is limited in duration to the term of this written warranty. The exclusive remedy under this warranty is the repair or replacement of the defective part.

Suncoast Porsche and SuncoastParts.com shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages arising from a breach of this written warranty or any implied warranty.

Some states do not permit limitations on implied warranty duration or the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages — the above limitations may not apply in your state. Additionally, installation of certain parts or accessories may affect your Porsche New Vehicle Warranty. Please consult your authorized Porsche dealer for full terms, or contact us with any questions.
