Think they were produced by a company in the West Country. How was it to install? What’s it like when you’re driving? Imagine the windows behind your shoulder give some useful visibility.

I wonder what it would look like with a round porthole (like the 60's T-Bird's) instead of the slightly uncomfortable triangle.

Berni29 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Hi Sort of went backwards today. Discovered that my dripping Tiptronic fill plug as not actually dripping. This was after resealing it twice (the second time with much RTV). It was a tiny weep in the metal just under the plug . Rust hole basically. Poked it with a screwdriver and it went straight through. New sump ordered. Ugh. This will be the third time I have resealed the sump. What a pain. Must remember to order new fill and sump plugs.

Thank you 👍🏻 I didn't seal it as I didn't know what would be best to use 🤔 I have some JetSeal 109, Zymol Carbon wax etc. in my arsenal but not sure if those would be suitable. Can you recommend any products? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read some good reviews about it though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downsey Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Removed the Boxster S and put this more modern looking Porsche badge on. Just need to remove the ghosting that is left from the old badge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any way to adjust? Not sure if you’re asking about adjusting the window - if you are I wouldn’t because you’ll get the reverse of the problem when you use the soft top again. What I’d look at is moving the hardtop window seal away from the hardtop a little further towards the window edge and seeing if that closes closes the gap.

I guess so. I'm sooooo looking forwards to driving it again. Apart from picking it up have not really driven it properly. It should be reasonably well sorted by the time I have finished, although many of the parts will not really contribute to the driving experience as such. Certainly the new sump will not! The suspension change will I hope! All the best Berni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull out the seal and put some 6mm o ring cord into the groove to pack out the seal may work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
