Any aftermarket latches available? I have been searching. I need the front ones.
Would prefer metal, but anything is better than $300 for some latches. _________________ 1981 Weissach Edition #179 |

This is one of my pet projects. Have the actual latch handle part 3D printed and functioning in a 924S for a year but I want to tweak the clip part. I'll get some pics up _________________ 1980 931 since 1989

Hopefully I am think about this wrong.
I am missing the levers? Also, does the deflector go "inside" the sunroof when putting it on? I need a deflector hinge too.

I found 1 lever in the glove box! I think I just need another lever and the triangle repair plates. Metal brackets are present. _________________ 1981 Weissach Edition #179 |

Triangle plates are listed in my previous post. Can be bought from Porsche or Rosepassion for €2 each. Deflector hinge can be had from Porsche too. Or you can pay more by buying second hand from Ebay.... _________________ 1980 931 - forged pistons, Piper cam, K27/26 3257 6.10 hybrid turbo, 951 FMIC, custom intake, Mittelmotor dizzy & cam pulley, H&S exhaust, GAZ Gold, Fuch'ed, Quaife

Thanks, the plastic stuff is pretty easy to locate.
I was just hoping their was some aftermarket aluminum. Seems like it could be done easy enough. _________________ 1981 Weissach Edition #179 |

I'll see what I can come up with in aluminum if nothing can be found. Easy enough
Also inside the sunroof is a ridiculously heavy steel bracket. That will be made some other way as well _________________ 1980 931 since 1989
