Windstop
#1

I am looking for a windstop used on the 944 or 968 cab. Please let me know if you have one for sale or know of where I can purchase from. Porsche is not an option as part would not be available until Sept 2016.



Thanks

Did you try Sunset?



My wife and I bought one as a mutual anniversary gift a few years ago, it does wonders to quiet the "squeak in the passenger seat"

these are currently out of stock. they won't make them before 2016, unless a demand pops up. unfortunately, and the price they want, and given how lame the attachment system is, i doubt enough people will step up before then.



makes me wonder if i should come up with one or not. the issue would be the mold cost. if i were to try to bring down the price point, it would probably require 20 units to pay for the mold. not sure i want to do that. that's why i never did it, but i also never thought they would go out of stock.

I have to believe that you could produce something as good as Porsche for $400+.



My Rx-7 had a piece that was built in behind the seats and simply lifted into place when the top was down.

I'd be interested if it worked more conveniently than the Porsche one. I have the windscreen, but it's so inconvienent that I never use it unless my wife is in the car and it's one of those rare occasions when she lets me put the top down.

i get that. in fact, now that i have the zip out rear window, the top doesn't go down nearly as much either.

no on pelican.



depends on when you check for used. once in a rare while they pop up, but never at a wrecker. ebay and such.

I had been checking around the world on this for 4 or 5 months without success. One did <acronym title='previous owner'>PO</acronym> here on the web site but was snatched up in a heart beat. I finally went to Porsche and ordered it but have now cancelled after being advised of extended delay (2years) in delivery.



Should one of our brothers/sisters decide to sell theirs at a reasonable price then I am interested.



Flash...if you get enough intrest and do go into production, I will commit to purchasing one (up to Porsche price) but ask that the attachment mechanism also be configured to work with your chassis brace.
