Car Fix DIY Videos

Hi Everyone, ever wanted a built-in garage door opener in your Porsche 996 911 (2000-2005)? Tired of the one on the key chain or marring up your visor? In this DIY video, I show you how to use your existing remote and wire it into a switch you can mount in a blank spot in your center console. When you are done you have a totally stock look and all it cost you was the cost of the switch and a bit of wire! It is an awesome mod/hack. The switch is a two-position switch so you can control two doors independently. I show you the places to solder for a Genie and a LiftMaster garage door opener and tell you how to trace the circuit so you can use any opener with a micro switch! The total time is about an hour and you’ll be super psyched with the results!

Here is everything you’ll need:

• New Switch: Porsche 996 Targa Shade Switch – 996-613-119-10-A05
• Key fob garage door opener remote programmed for your garage door(s)
• Some two-conductor wire (like speaker wire) ! 12” 18-24awg
• Some single wire ~12” 24awg
• (5) female spade crimp-on connectors
• Wire cutters/crimpers
• Soldering iron
• Solder
• Multi-Meter/Continuity Checker

Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll get right back to you.
