[quote name='chris' post='27803' date='Nov 10 2006, 01:16 PM']The '92 covers are the ones with the glove icon right? (as opposed to flat, with no icon)[/quote]
+2 My 93 does NOT have the hands on the cover. I wondered about that, now I know. Thanks <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

They souldn't be any different, except the little hands on the glove holder. there is also the cover that goes over the wires/hoses at the back of the engine (just an fyi). btw, as I understand it; after 93 they stopped putting the covers on, so your 94 wouldn't have one from the factory(but they sure look nice)

It could also be a leftover '93 rebadged as a '94 which may let it have one.

I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

My 94 is a hold over '93 and did not have the covers but does now as I picked them on eBay. The one on eBay probably added them after the fact.

Quote:I noticed a '94 cabriolet on ebay that has the covers. It's serial number is much earlier than my '94 which does not have the covers. Any idea how I could tell if my car EVER had covers?
If it's a late 94 chances are good that it didn't (they stopped after 93), but as Mark mentioned an early 94 may really be a re-badged 93 and
could have them. BTW all 968's have the mounts for the covers so putting them on is easy, so even the on on e-bay may not have
come with them.

Actually 94 and 95 do not have the mounts for the front one, but it rests quite comfortably in there without them
