Hi Everyone
Does anyone know if the S1 (square dash) and S2 bonnets are excatly the same or is there a difference? I'm looking for a cheap S2 bonnet and have found one but the owner isn't sure if it came off the early square dash 944 or not and I don't want to get the wrong one.
TIA

Thanks for all your help. It would appear that the following is the correct deduction:
The early 944/924 bonnet differs to that fitted to the Turbo and late 944s. That said Porsche only offer the later part now, but the internal bracing that matches the firewall is different.
The 924/944 has had three different bonnets:

Early 924 using a stick.
Later 924 and early (series one) 944 - similar using gas rams.
Series two 944 still using gas rams but with different internal support.

The series two 944 (1986 model year on, built from September 1985) has a different firewall and the later bonnet has reloacted bracing to match this.
