Rear Spoiler Plastic Wall

No threading required. Just push firmly on at the top until it snaps into place and click into place at bottom. Best tip I can give is that to take the old one off you simply pull it off and therefore fitting the new one is the reverse.
 
In the 964 PET there's no rubber seal shown. In the 993 PET there IS a seal. So I guess the rubber seal is only relevant to the 993.

The rear wall for the 964 is 993 part no: 993 512 121 00.
For the 993 this also comes with a seal, part no: 993 512 533 00.
 
(In reply to RJS 993) I had the exact same experience and even took the spoiler off to try and fit it. I bought it from Porscheshop and sent it back to them for full credit. I got a replacement from the OPC with club discount and it will fit fine. So it seems there are some rogue parts out there!!
 
I recently fitted my new rear curtain, much as the info sheets said with the spoiler not fully up. Quite an easy job and I spent more time cleaning than fixing.
One thing however, is that my car seems not to have the lower rubber seal fitted to the bottom rail that the curtain clips into. This, looking at the 964 PET is part number 964 512 081 01. Is this fitted to all cars and hence is mine missing?
Two types are listed (both item 10) the other is 964 512 081 02. Anyone know the difference and the change point - if I need one of these?

Thanks, Robert
 
The 964 seals do not work with the new 993 rear curtain, you need to change the seal to the 993 one if you are fitting a new curtain

Mine has item 10 that you refer to but I don't recall it interfering with the fitting of the spoiler wall. Especially at the bottom where the wall just clips on to the metal bar. I'll double check at the weekend.
 
Thanks Steve, top man as always.
So it would seem my seal must have got lost sometime during it's twenty year of life.
Could you confirm which one of the two seals listed is the one that I might need, as I've no idea?
Thanks, Robert

Parts 14- 99351253300 & 40 - 99991161440
 
This is all getting out of proportion now. I and many others have fitted a new wall to our spoilers without any problems. The wall is a 993 part number (993 512 121 00) and has been so for a long time. It fixes straight on and there is no need for a 993 type seal when fitting the wall on to a 964. The two PET diagrams for the 964 and 993 (above) have a number of differences. Especially regarding the items that are noted as seals (item 10 on the 964 diagram and item 14 on the 993 diagram).

As a side note, I bought my wall direct from the OPC. If fitting one part that has been upgraded requires another part to be changed at the same time they always tell me. No extra part was required when replacing the wall.
 
This is getting confusing... The PET image above is the 993?

T911UK are you saying that the 993PET Item 14 - 99351253300 should also be fitted to the 964 when the 993 part-number spoiler wall is used?

The PET below is for the 964. Item 10 which Steve referred to earlier is listed as: 964 512 081 02 - seal. Can someone take a photo of this seal in place so we know what it actually looks like. I have 3x 964 engine lids here and none of them have a seal fitted.

Hey guys, dont shoot the messenger!

Just given the info Porsche supply

When fitting a 964 with a new curtain, this will be a 993 version and they think you need the 2 seals to get it to work

Im sure you guys with 964's know alot more about fitting them than Porsche do, so share your info here
 
ORIGINAL: T911UK

BTW the 2 seals are not shown on 964 PET, just the 993 PET

Hi T911UK,

We're not trying to shoot you. We value you your input as always*. Also, none of us saying that we know more than Porsche. We're saying that Porsche use the 964 PET when supplying parts (they certainly did when I bought mine from them) and that PET lists the spoiler wall as the 993 part. The 964 PET does not show the need to have the 993 seal when fitting a new wall to a 964. Whether the 993 seal could be fitted, if someone chose to, I have no idea at all. My own and others experiences of fitting the new wall is that it fits straight on without the need for adding a 993 seal.

*I've bought quite a lot of parts from yourself (especially brakes) and always had great service. [:)]
 
I think I confused everyone with this (including myself!)

If you need to change seal part 10 you need to change all 3 parts. ie; curtain, top seal and bottom seal as fitted to the 993

Pdf versions of PET wont show this, PET 7.3 will


I wasnt trying to be funny when I said some of you guys know more than Porsche! You do! youre working on them & tinkering with them, Porsche dont know much about 20 year old cars!

Hi Robert, as promised I had a good examination of mine today and could not find anything resembling that seal (item 10). It obviously doesn't affect fitting or the operation of the spoiler wall so it's not something to worry about IMO. At least it gave me a good opportunity to clean it all again though. [:D]
 
Thanks Steve. I think we've all now decided that the 964 rear curtain/wall does NOT have the seal item 10 in the 964 parts list, nor does it have the part 14 in the 993 parts list. So I can rest easy that there is nothing missing from the bottom of my new rear curtain/wall. Unless someone knows otherwise!

Robert
