Okay, thanks.
Do you know what the difference between 477 871 635 A and 477 871 636 A is?

Great service too.

Fitted a pair of 9Products castor blocks today, they look a whole lot more sturdy than the OEM ones I removed!!!

I’m hoping with all the changes(B6 suspension, 968CS springs, castors, OEM bushes) It feels a bit tighter up front.

Sloppy gearstick traced to Only 944 shortshift coming loose at thrust bearings. Cleaned regreased and tightened up. One to keep an eye on. Nut was secured by a split pin but a washer had compressed increasing play.
From pic there appears to be a redesign mine is an early one.

liking the polished rim on the black wheels, not normally much of a fan of black wheels, but that breaks the black up nicely

the car is looking really nice too

Yes. Car looks good BTW. Any more pics?

Air deflector hinges and clamp brackets fitted.
It's nice to use new parts.

I changed the front and intermediate gear linkage with a long life machined job from JMG Porsche a little while ago. What a difference to the gear shift.
It means that I can forget about it indefinitely.
