Seals for 944 S2 Cab

[RICH7105]

I have 1990 944 S2 cabrio and two seals are missing - the grommet from the bottom of the wheel well, and the seal that sits at the top of the electric window between that and the quarterlight. I have tried to get these from Porsche without success - has anyone any ideas ??

Thanks

Rich

Forestfine are good but I will warn you that these parts are really really expensive. I tried to get a replacement vertical interior seal for the window / roof seal. It is only cosmetic as the exterior seal does the work....£370!!!!! This is a piece of rubber about 10 inches long!

As regards the gromit there was a cab breaking on e-bay - not much left but this part might be there.

The wheel well grommit (more cheese?!) is still present on my tin-top, to my surprise. Surprise, because it seems to fall out at the slightest provocation. Every time I go under the rear of the car to access something, and brush it even slightly, it falls out.

I'd be surprised if there are many 944's with them left in for this reason.

Thanks for your help - have sorted the boot grommet, but was quoted £149 for the top seal.... I guess expensive new cars never become cheap old ones !!

Try Douglas Valley breakers. They have a 968 cab in at the mo....

Just spotted this thread, i needed parts for the frame of my cab last year and all of the breakers i tried would not sell individual parts off the frame (seals,top bow etc) - and the average price for a complete used hood was around 500 quid!
Try doing regular searches on the german ebay site though as i remember seeing cab seals and frame parts crop up a few times before xmas (had to use babelfish to translate though).
