The part you are looking for is listed in PET 944 201 331 00 and it has a price, when bits are NLA they do not normally have a price attached, even so its £85.52 the little cover, 951 201 025 00, IS NLA ![]() Item 16 is the bigger cover, 17 is NLA |

Yes sorry I wasn't clear the small inspection cover is what I am asking about, it is an odd shape as it conforms to the base of the petrol tank to create a seal so not sure on how easy it would be to fabricate one. This must be an issue for a lot of 944 / 968 owners on this side of the hemisphere, surprised that there isn't a third party making a solution. The retaining strap is available as an after market item from Design 911 - bit pricey though at £90... |

Short or long strap I think Porsche are taking the P155 The short strap is £290.87 The long strap is £271.84 That is just a joke. but there is a complete cover on the bay of fleas, looks in good condition too https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PORSCHE-944- ... 3405408647 |

Yes - I spoke to Steve at Douglas Valley as he was breaking a 944S2 and he put that up on the bay for me but didn't include the strap that we'd agreed the price on. Considering I can get the big piece brand new from Porsche for £75, the £57 (inc postage) for a used one of sketchy condition is a bit of a risk... especially as I would want to get it stripped and powder coated. The strip is £95 from design911 for an aftermarket reproduction, I guess you could also make one from some sheet steel / aluminium as there are some simple bends and then a couple of holes to drill at either end... |

When mine went on my 87 car I remade the strip using the ends & mad a middle using aluminium strip from B & Q riveted on. My covers weren't too bad but I would make a replacement in GRP of I needed one. Use the old one built up with foam as a mould. |
