My drivers side window lifter mechanism on my s2 cab is badly worn and I'm trying to get a replacement from a breakers. I just spoke to Douglas valley and contrary to what i though, (the lifter is Cab specific and commands a premium price) any lifter of a late model 944 will have the stopper at the top of its travel and will work fine. Anyone know for sure about this?
Cheers. Ben..

Ben the 44 and 68 cabby have a roof 60mm lower than the coupe's, the parts are different

Cheers ordered it off Porschapart £75 - £15 credit I had with them + £10 carriage + vat. its funny. looking at pictures on E-bay, the O/S cab regulator looks like a N/S Coupe regulator. and the parts diagram looks like that too despite the discrepancies in part numbers.
I must get home and water my money-tree Grrr..

My window lifter just arrived. part number 94453704201 stamped on the arm, which is the coupe part number. Go figure. Porschapart said they took it out of a cab they just got from japan. so i guess the chap at douglas valley was spot on about it. I'll confirm for sure when i fit it. probably tonight.

I asked the question and was told they have different part no.s, that as the quaterlight was seperate and the lift/drop was 60mm shorter it would not fit so will be very interested in your experiment as there are not a lot of cabby's broken, fingers crossed

They are identical. the only difference is the part number stamped on the arms. I am happy though. Window is smooth now and i've fitted some new/used door cards.
